Gb Bebop Dominant Scale

The Bebop Dominant Scale is Mixolydian with a major 7th added as a passing note, for eight notes in all. Played in eighth notes from a chord tone, the extra note keeps the chord's Root, 3rd, 5th and flat 7th on the beat, which is how bebop lines like Charlie Parker's flow over the changes. Use it over dominant 7th chords.
