tdc Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 You can do a lot of things improvisationally in the style of Zeppelin if you have a good understanding of 3 scales: -The Minor Pentatonic -The Major Pentatonic -The Minor Scale Once you have a good understanding of these 3 you can improv to the majority of their songs and then branch out from there. It helps to know when you can use what. Anything that is based more or less on a 12 bar blues chord progression (for example Rock n Roll or Bring it on Home) this is where you want to use both minor and major pentatonic (shades of dark and light), a lot of players stick too much to minor pentatonics and their playing starts to sound monotonous. When you are trying to improv to songs that are in a minor key like Since I've Been Loving You, you want to use minor pentatonics with the minor scale.
