From my Lessons with Phil's Student Mark Kirk. Learn the ii-V-I pattern in all 12 keys. It is correct starting a pure diminished scale as Phil wrote it, it's old school. It works, it helps you to hear the diminished. Practice in all 12 keys, until fluent. Included is the Locrian #9 scale. The half diminished scale with a #2 (raised 2). These are 4

It works, it helps you to hear the diminished. Practice in all 12 keys, until fluent. Included is the Locrian #9 scale. The half diminished scale with a #2 (raised 2). These are 4 of the scale groups that Dexter Gordon practiced, the other is Dominant 7th. 5 Scale groups.

Here's a transcription of one of my solos on the tune "Own Sweet Way", one can pick apart the various ii-V changes and find many licks and ideas to practice in different keys or all 12 keys. Have fun!
