Jazz Practice Exercises

Hi, could you guys please post major scale exercises with 4 bars on each scale? Thanks!

You don't mean something as simple as this, do you?

Major Scales Exercises - 4 bars per scale

Or, perhaps, this without the repeats?

Major Scales Exercises 1 - 4 bars per scale

Sweet Jazz Blues - Jazz Blues without a Dom7 as the 1 chord. I couldn't find a blues on the forums that didn't have the 1 chord as a Dom7.

After I posted this the first time I realised there was an error. I had forgotten to change one of the C7 chords. Now fixed. As I said before, I couldn't figure out how to change the G-7 C7 to sound like a real G-7 F#7 tritone shift. If anybody knows how, feel free to post a version 2 of this.

The tritone-sub in the last line is the V's.
I added the /G just to sweeten it (like the title says...)

I just re-read your post.
To get to the IV through the I's tritone, try this:

The player coding algorythm automatically changes the chord voicings each time a song is cycled.

Just for playing pentatonic minor over the line.

This minor iiø-V7alt.-Im6 exercise goes UP in 5THS.
So there is a commonality between the Imin chord and the iiø7 in the next key's beginning.

I just repaired the mistake in the original!

Interesting.
Can you think of a song that does this?
