D - Dorian
E - Phrygian
F - Lydian
G - Mixolydian

Simple enough. I can only remember Major, Minor, Dorian, and Mixolydian without having to look it up.


No one has tossed out a question recently...

Given the chord pattern: Fmaj - Fmaj - Emin7b5 - A7b9 - Dmin7 - G7

What would be the best scale for improvisation over this progression (given that you can only pick one)
