有幾個方式去學調式音階，
第一種你可以想成都在C大調音階的關係（全部沒有升降記號）：
C音到C音Ionian,
D音到D音Dorian,
E音到E音Phrygian,
F音到F音Lydian,
G音到G音Mixolydian,
A音到A音Aeolian,
B音到B音Locian,

第二種方式，也是Tony喜歡用的一種方式：

Here is another one from a long time ago. Hope you enjoy it!

This is just me practicing Blue Monk. Any tips or suggestions are appreciated! Anything that can help me to be better!
I promise I will upload some 4 mallet stuff soon.
Thanks,

The lesson demonstrates some comping patterns and ideas to get you started on playing in a ChaCha groove. All the patterns are over a ii-V7 vamp (Amin7-D7). You could use these patterns over songs like Oye Como Va and Soul Sauce.

Here is a quick and dirty lesson on "Bubblehouse" by Medeski Martin and Wood from the album "Shack-Man". Stefan had requested more beginner stuff so this is what came to mind. It was a jammy-jam type of song that was popular when I was a tween in college. It was one of the first songs I heard and said "I can play that" and just walked over to the vibes and started banging it out. I busted it it out a few times when stuck jamming with rocker guitarists/bassists who don't know any songs. "Ok just play G minor.... :)"

In order to learn a blues, you'll have to get some sort of system to help you remember the notes as well as to help transpose them into different keys. There are a few different types of blues scales, however in this podcast we'll focus on the minor blues scales. In the key of F the notes would be: F Ab Bb B C Eb F.

Work hard on the modes. They are the foundation of the line!!

Locrian the crazy scale! The 7th scale degree of the major scale.

如果拿Locrian 音階和大調（major）音階來比較，Locrian音階多了降2降3降5降6降7音。

因為沒有完全五度（根音跟五音中間），所以聲響上沒有被解決的感覺。

單單只打這個音階覺得沒有被解決，所以通常用在minor7b5- dominant7b9,

例如Cminor7b5- Fdominant7b9 - Bbminor7

Locrian 是比較難的音階，可以練習在不同調式之間轉換，熟悉不同調式音階的聲音。

Dorian is the mode that starts on the second scale degree of the major scale. So in the key of C play D to D.

Dorian和 Ionian 的不同是，Dorian 降3音降7音
Dorian是最常在爵士樂中在小調和弦(Minor chord)中用到調式。II-V-I的和聲進行，II級幾乎都是用到Dorian。
（Tony示範各種不同爵士標準曲中（Standards）出現各種不同的Dorian聲音）
