Why are scales so unloved?

I was just listening to that scale you tried.
It had many guessed and bruised notes in it.
It might have been a newly invented one!
So, can I check a few things out with you?
Do you know what the notes are meant to be?
Can you find them one by one on your instrument?
Do you know what major and minor scales should sound like?
How about those dominant 7th and blues patterns?
If not, ask your teacher to play them to you.
Try learning a few so you can play them beautifully.

It's worth it. They really do help improve your sound. Hz
