DOODES Subtitles, please! Or at least de-fang the dialect, like they did for Mr. “Scotland Forever”, Sean Connery, after he spent too much time in Beverly Hills and became comprehendible.

N.B. This must have something to do with how the UK handles traffic violations for people who steal hubcaps.

I insist in correct umlauts. I used to listen to Motörhead and Mötley Crüe. And I am getting pigeon-holed as one of the töfü-eäting and Güärdiän reäding wökeräti. Originally Posted by NSJ

back on point: so many different ways to create lines
1. Half step rule to make chord tones lie on the downbeat
2. Half step rule at any place, except where there is no half step possible (E and F; B and C), in which case, go up a scale step before going to the half step (E-G-F; B-D-C)
3. 5432 lines
4. Pasquale’s 4 note patterns depending on whether the starting note is named fir. a Major or Minor chord (C in the key of C: Ascending: C-D-Eb-E; Descending: E-D-Db-C; D in the key of C: D-Eb-E-F; descending: F-E-Eb-D).
D. Any of 1-4, but landing on note associated with the diminished chord, which allows you to ascend or descend in Ems or in tritones. D-Eb-E-F-Ab-B-D or D-Eb-E-F-Ab-B-F).
Infinite pathways and possibilities.

- half step rules after an ascending scale fragment w/o half steps (which is different from the usual “bebop scale” approaches where you use a half step ascending and descending; there are examples for this in the “Sample Improv Lesson” on Howard Rees’ Jazz School Online – Created to Preserve, Present & Proliferate the Wisdom of Jazz Master Barry Harris. website.)

Seventh Scale
Four Note Chords on each degree
On the upbeat - Half-Step below - Triplet up a Four Note Chord
Descend using the Half-Step Rule(s) for the TOP NOTE of the Four Note Chord
When you get to the DOMINANT'S 5th/3rd/b2nd run up a Diminished Chord.
Resolve.
We could find variations for years.

The 8th note on the upbeat into an 8th note triplet followed by at least two 8th notes (or a venerable army of 8th notes) is a very bebop way of starting phrases. It actually fits a vocal pneumonic: the intro to “Blues in the Night”
“MY MAMA DONE TOLD ME—-“
Mama Done is phrased like a triplet. I found using that pneumonic to be helpful in internalizing the concept.

Anyway if you are getting tired of the up the arp down the scale sort of thing, one great way to kick it up a notch is to use a pivot, where we octave displace one or more notes of a four note chord for instance (though you could equally use this for scales, think Bach)
If you take a maj7 arp and put the first note up an octave, but you can do this with any four note chord, including dim7. (If that’s not clear it would be easier to write out some examples.)
This does a lot to make lines sound less predictable and more interesting
