    Thanks for this. I'm not that advanced, but have always liked the harmonic minor. It seems like a lot if instructors pass over it in favor of the jazz minor and other scales. You've given me some extra food for thought, because I never thought to us it over the appropriate major 7th.

    Beautiful! You said in another comment that you 'don't think in modes', but a longer video on use of harmonic minor modes in jazz would be great!
    Effectively, that's what you're doing here isn't it? An easy example would be playing the C major scale over a D minor chord, you can look at it that way or call it the Dorian mode. Same thing....
    I don't pretend to know any jazz, but going back to the harmonic minor, Dorian #4 over the IV chord seems a nice one.

    Why is Fmaj7 "outside" for a minor harmonic? The chords you gave are part of exactly what you'd build using harmonic minor anyway. And since harmonic minor is technically more common than natural minor, what you played is really "inside", isn't it?
    The sharped g as the sharp 9 and natural b as a sharped 11th provide those tones just like you said.
    And g#dim7 is the chord for the seventh scale degree of harmonic minor, so that's correct too. The E7 is the dominant for amin harmonic, too.
    According to my theory book, these are standard chords for a minor. Because apparently it's more common in music to use a VDom7 and #viidim7 for minor than a v7 or VII7
    Like, everything you used is just music theory, which a real jazz player would know. As opposed to a plain, internet-esucated guitar guy who thinks minor is only supposed to be natural minor.
