This is a Bb major triad (Bb, D, F) with a b3 (Db), a 4th ( Eb) and a b5 (E). Wes begins his guitar solo with this lick. Lick # 2 00:56 You can play this line over a Bb7 chord. It is simply the G phrygian mode (G-Ab-Bb-C-D-Eb-F) it has the same notes as the Bb mixolydian scale. You can also think like mixolydian mode starting with the sixth (G) Lick # 3 01:43 The first nine notes are from the F mixolydian scale (F-G-A-Bb-C-D-Eb) and the lick ending with a C diminished triad (C-Eb-Gb). Lick # 4 02:31 This lick starts with a Ab major arpeggio (Ab-C -Eb). Lick # 5 02:59 This lick starts with a Bb major 6 arpeggio (Ab-D-F-G) and continues with notes from the Bb mixolydian scale. Note the presence of a minor third (Db) before playing the major third (D) with a hammer-on. Lick # 6 03:41 This lick consists of using the F minor bebop scale over a Bb7 chord. This scale is built by taking the Dorian Mode and adding in a #7 interval. You can use this scale to solo over a m7 chord or 7 chord as did Wes in "West coast blues" (at 1mn59). F dorian mode is F-G-Ab-Bb-C-D-Eb, to get the dorian bebop scale just add the #7 (E) between D and Eb. Lick # 7 04:20 This easy and short guitar lick is made of 3 notes corresponding of the three notes of the Bb major chord (Bb, D, F). Wes Montgomery plays this riff in "West coast blues" (at 2mn22). This lick starts with the Bb chord (Bb, D, & F) and goes on with a Bb arpeggio (Bb, D & F again). Lick # 8 04:52 This lick contains notes from the G phrygian scale (G-Ab-Bb-C-D-Eb-F) Lick # 9 05:34 Wes Montgomery was the king of octaves playing. Here is an easy way to play using octaves using notes from Bb minor arpeggio (Bb-Db-F). The scale used is the Bb mixolydian scale (Bb-Ab-D-Eb-F-G-A). Note the presence of a minor third (Db) before playing the major third (D) with a hammer-on. Wes plays was playing this line over a Bb7 Chord. Lick # 10 06:09 It's better to play this lick over a C7 chord, not Bb7 chord. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- https://www.youtube.com/user/jazzguit... --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Follow us on facebook https://www.facebook.com/jazzguitarlicks --------------------------------------------------------------------------- https://twitter.com/jazzguitarlicks
