Welcome back to another lick of the month episode. This week, while we give you time to practice your triad patterns, we are going to look at a line from the killer saxophonist, Sam Dillon, in which he uses pentatonics along with rhythmic creativity to give us some awesome effects. Sam is a master of using techniques like this and we can learn a lot from his playing in a short period of time. Sam and I have just released a book of transcriptions from his album, Out In the Open, so if you like his playing here, be sure to grab a copy of the book HERE!
