Wow MK, I'm impressed with the work you've done 8)
I remember a few weeks back you asking if you could do runs of the blues scale..
I'm glad you've done it & it's in all the keys.

The blues scale is indeed a good scale to run..

Now this is what I'd like to know:

When would you run these scales...I'd really benefit from that.. 8)

ONE of the ways you could use this...

If you're in Eb, the relative minor is C right?
Then you can run the C blues scale in Eb.
Then you can run the C# blues scale in E.
Then you can run the D blues scale in F
And so on...

You usually run the scale over dominant chords.

I guess the easiest application is in the context of a simple 12-bar blues. For instance, using the progression C7, F7, G7, you can use the C blues scale to solo over this progression.

Also note that you can also use the C major pentatonic scale over this progression. It just depends on the sound you want.
