Trouble understanding modes? Here's an excellent demonstration ..

This is Vinnie Moore, he's a guitarist. Forget the hair and that, he's a fabulous guitarist and he explains the modes really well for the novice/intermediate player.

It's in three parts, this is the first. You'll see links in youtube to the other two.

bit of a faux pas in part 2, 6:44, D minor is the relative minor of F major - not E flat minor.
