MELODIC MUSE by Andy Timmons
BLUE CONDITION
Over the next few columns, Andy Timmons will demonstrate a variety of strategies he likes to employ when both composing a melody and improvising a solo over a specific chord progression. The approach he takes may be built from blues-influenced phrases, sometimes in combination with targeting chord tones or with a nod toward a modal approach. For each of these examples, he’ll simply improvise over the progression “in the moment” and then step back and see what tools he used in crafting the phrases.

Really well taught! Not a given that a top tier player is willing or able to break down their process and choices in a way that will benefit a wide range of experience levels.
