Moondance Modern Swing

Start with the chords There are only a couple of chords to this song. The main part is just Am7 to Bm7 or in some versions Am7 to E11. Other than that there is a Dm7 and an E7 or E7#9.

3 Ways to Play Chords While there are more than 1 way always to play chords following are 3 ways starting with the easiest method. The basic pattern for the rhythm is the Charlston Rhythm. This piece is a modern swing so get the feel of the chords.

Easiest – You must be able to do this way before going on! Am7 Bm7 Dm7 1 2 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 2 2 2 E7 1 E7 #9 2 1 2 4 4

Next method – Want majority to do this. Am7 Next method – Want majority to do this. Bm7 Dm7 1 1 1 1 1 1 3 1 2 3 4 E7#9 1 1 1 1 1 1 3 6th Fret 1 2 3 7th Fret 4

Advanced Method #3 Am7 Bm7 Dm7 2 3 3 3 3 Dm7 2 3 3 3 3 E7#9 1 2 3 4 3 3 3 3 Dm7 2 3 3 3 3 E7#9 1 2 3 4 10th Fret 2 3 3 3 3 6th Fret 1 2 3 7th Fret 4

For E7#9 either E7 or E7#9 work 1 2 1 3 4 2 3 4

Now start working on the 1st 2 chords 4/4 ||: Am7 Bm7 : || Start with 2 beats each and then do 1.5 on Am7 and 2.5 on Bm7. Like a ‘Charlston’ beat. 4/4 ||: Am7 Bm7 : || 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &

Be sure to do the right counting for this one Be sure to do the right counting for this one. There are other ways to do this that work also (see next page).

Here it is with E11 instead of Bm7 – note that either works. Let your ear decide on which you would rather do.

A Dorian Mode Most of the melody (other than the Dm7 section) is in A Dorian mode. A Dorian mode is the 2nd degree of G major. Play this starting in the 5th position but at the 4th and 3rd strings switch to the 4th position. Learn the scale before doing the melody. The Dm7 part can be an A Aeolian mode or a D Dorian Mode.

A Dorian Mode 5th Position

E A B C B A B A G A E A B C B A B G A A A B C B A B A G A E A B C B A B A G A OK now we can start with the notes and the chords. The notes are entirely in the key of G for the whole first section. This is the Dorian mode of the key of G or A Dorian. Play this in the 4th position for now. Learn the names of the notes that you are playing.

This next section is based on the D Dorian Mode above.

This section is Dm7 to Am7 and goes to the key of C or to D Dorian mode.

Retard here. This is based on the A Dorian mode but only using the A pentatonic cool huh!

Melody in 12th position. Page 1.

Vary the melody by playing in 2 different registers This can add much interest to playing the melody. I like to do this to many songs. Again think of the notes as you play. This really helps your ears!!!

Solo Section A number of approaches but if you are just starting only solo on the Am7 to Bm7 and use the A Dorian Mode. Really emphasis the notes in the Am7 chord: A, C, E and G for the solo. If you are advanced then solo off of the whole form. For this use the A Dorian mode for all but the middle section that has the Dm7 in it. For that section use C dorian. Use ideas from other songs and quote the melody at times.

Now put it all together Again start with the chords. From there move on to the melody. Entire melody can be played in the 4th and 5th positions. Take it slowly and try to get the swing. Buy the record and listen to it!! Start you solo using the notes in the melody. Learn the names of the notes!!
