Now that you know all the Blues (Hexatonic), diatonic modes and melodic minor scales, we can now look at how to use them over a dominant or 7th chord. This lesson is in 2 parts because of there is a great deal you can do with a dominant chord and there’s a great deal of theory surrounding it. Dominant chords appear in 2 main varieties, Static and Functional. A dominant chord normally resolves to its 1 chord. This is because the whatsit of the 7th becomes the doo dah of the 1 chord and vice versa. Simple!
