The iRealBook app has a scale add-on which gives you some of the possibilities for a given chord. Six scales for the first chord, The one's you talk about, Dorian, Pentatonic minor, Blues, BeBop minor, Aeolian, Phrygian. A lot of possible chords, colors.
After ya deconstruct, ya got these pieces and the pieces can be found in other tunes,
Summertime for me seems to go with a lot of other tunes like "The Old Country" (Adderly) or Nature Boy (Abhen), Blue Skies (Berlin), Autumn Leaves (Kosma), Stella (Young), Old Folks (Robison)
How do ya use these other tunes to enhance your progress, can they get in the way?
