Guitar Lesson Overview
This lesson first shows you the Dorian scale in the key of A. Then, it shows how the Pentatonic and the Blues scale relate to the Dorian, and finally it shows some examples of how you can combine them and improvise with them. This lesson assumes you are somewhat familiar with the different scales. Emphasis is on how you can combine them as you improvise.

Learning guitar at your own pace
I want to tell you about the guitar lesson web site JamPlay. They have kindly offered a special 7 Day Free trial to visitors of Dolphinstreet.com. I have reviewed their site, and I have to say it is VERY impressive.
There are lots of teachers and many different areas to learn from. It is well organized, and you can learn songs, techniques, etc - very complete website for learning. After 7 days, you will pay a monthly subscription continue. For the 7 trial, you don't have to give out your credit card number.
Go check it out and see what you think. Since it is completely free for 7 days, you really should test it out. You have nothing to lose. If you are interested in learning guitar online, you would be silly not to take advantage of this. If you do decide to sign up, I receive a little bonus, so this way you help support dolphinstreet as well!

Comments on this video lesson:
Hi, the lesson shows how you can mix these different modes.
The scale is simply like the natural minor scale (Aeolian) but with raising the 6th degree of the scale.
Hope that helps.

My comment is about the
"Dorian Scale Video Lesson"
I checked my "Hal Leonard Guitar Scales Poster" and a Guitar Book by a Berklee College Music Graduate. Both the Poster and the book have the same Dorian scale. The Dorian scale that is portrayed in the video you posted is incorrect according the book and the poster. Please fix this or explain it to me.
