Will be doing a single song performance in a few weeks time.
The song I'll be singing and playing is Isolation Jeff Beck/Jonny Depp version.
There are two solos.
One over the Chord progression Bm D/C G D/A so in the key of D that would be a vi I IV I progression, with a Mixolydian feel given the C. So my thoughts on this is Mixolydian with Major pentatonic thrown in for good measure.
The second solo is over
D A# G A# D
Which then goes to Gm C D A# then cycles around Bm C D A
Plan to go a bit nuts on the second solo, but my real time thinking is a bit crap so what would be best scale for the second solo?

But there's also dissonance coming from this rhythm part (line cliche?):
x-x-7-7-7-x
x-x-8-7-7-x
x-x-9-7-7-x
x-x-10-7-7x
(then resolve to the G and D)
As you say, the second solo progression starts out as: | D A# | G A# |
Then it moves on to something like: | D A# | G/B C |
So, again, you've got that ascending line A* A# B C
* if you throw a fifth in the bass of the A chord
However, you look at it, general craziness with a D blues scale is what's on the record
