NOTATION

Tom Quayle / The Collab Series Vol.2 2

INTRODUCTION
All the solos in this jam are played over fairly sparse backing tracks which
work with either Dorian or Mixolydian tonalities.

Tom starts in E, and he chooses the Dorian option (E F# G A B C# D). For


bars 1-7, he restricts himself mostly to minor pentatonic (E G A B D) with the
added flat 5th (Bb) ‘blue note’.

There’s some classic Quayle legato in bars 10-13. Notice how Tom builds
this line around Em7 arpeggio fragments, and uses chromatic notes to fill in
the gaps between the scale notes. In bar 17, he gets a cool ‘outside’ sound by
temporarily shifting up to F minor.
