Rich, I hear that there are two different blues scales, sort of a shorter "country" one and a more elaborate "city" scale. Do you care to elaborate on this, or am I just being too gullible, that there really is no such thing? Seems like I saw an old film clip on television some time back where a few blues guys showed the scale they were using, and best I recall it was the 5 note scale you mentioned. I'm not sure what the notes were in the scale. But I have a book here that has a 7 note scale. How about some info from the boss?
