Hey Adam.

Yes.

D-da-da-da-do-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-dda. I really miss my hammer 88 man

I really miss my hammer 88 man I'm Adam Maness.

And I'm Peter Martin.

And you're listening to the You'll Hear Podcast.

Music advice coming at you back in the...

Pod hall?

Pod hall. I think we're going to call this the pod hall. This is amazing.

It is kind of amazing. Yeah, so we were separated for months of the pandemic. We were sheltering from home. We were doing some remote episodes. Remember what do you know about Instagram live episodes? You remember this? We've been through a lot, man. We tried all the platforms and we were recording remotely up until last week. Yeah. And so we thought we'd come back. We have our extra long table so we can be

socially distance as we podcast. Spiritually connected, but socially distance, as we like to say. But yeah, we're in this big open. We got our 35 foot high ceilings here, man, I'm ready to go. I'm ready to go. And we just want to be clear here. And we're excited to be back on YouTube, back in the in the end on the podcast and everything but we're we're very much not like the

pandemic is over i mean and everything, but we're

very much not like the pandemic is over. I mean, it's still happening. We're trying to just be careful, but also give you guys a little bit of entertainment, a little bit of things. Everyone's been practicing a lot at home, which is great. And so we thought to come back with this episode and talk about four scales that every jazz musicians should know would be appropriate because it's a little bit of a back to basics,

but it's an important subject. There's nothing more important for me right now except to tell you about AnyTune. Oh, I love, come on. You appreciate it to the choir now, but tell the folks. Anything's our great sponsor. We were using them before they were our sponsor. Go to Anytune.us. You'll hear it to check out really one of the best tools there is for learning music. It's an amazing transcription tool. Put in your track, whatever classic track you want. You can slow it down without losing pitch. You can change the pitch if you want to. You can set markers and loops. The markers are great to keep your practice organized. I know you're a big organized practiser.

I know, man.

And efficiency. That's what it's all about, man. That's what it's all about. So go to Anytune.us. You'll hear it to check it out for yourself. And they are going to be on Android very soon and maybe stick around to the end of the episode to the end of the episode to learn how you could be one of the first on Android with any tune.

Ooh, a little beta program maybe in effect. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So what are we talking about today? stick around to the end of the episode to learn how you could be one of the first on Android with any tune.

Ooh, a little beta program maybe in a fact.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So what are we talking about today? Okay, four scales every jazz musician should know. Did you hear how I phrased that? Yeah, you said should know, not four scales every jazz musician might want to check out. Right. You didn't say four scales every jazz saxophonist should know. No. Or every bebop pianist should know. You said four scales every jazz musician should know. Yeah. And now that I'm thinking about it, but we could have said four jazz, four scales every jazz musician better had no. But we didn't want to go that far. We said should. We're going to leave it up to you if you're going to take it upon yourself. Yeah, we're like 85% dogmatism with this right now. We believe most of it. So we'll go through. Number one, I think, I mean, you know, looking down our list here of scales, it's like some of these scales maybe wouldn't have been used by like Lewis Armstrong. Number one, though, definitely would have been. That's right. And these are not in any particular order, and there's certainly, this is not all-inclusive, but these are foundational ones that you definitely want to know before you go on to other ones. And yes, the blue scale. This is so important because it really speaks to, I mean, not that you can, and we'll talk about what it is, but not that you can

just run up and down it. Not for any of these. Nobody wants to do that. But for what it represents

as the foundation of being a great improviser and what it does to put the tools that it puts into
