Gregorian Modes:
Ionian (aka the Major Scale) 1-2-3-4-5-6-7: C to C
Dorian, 1-2-b3-4-5-6-b7: D to D (relative to Ionian that is 2 to 2)
Phrygian, 1-b2-b3-4-5-b6-b7: E to E (relative to Ionian that is 3 to 3)
Lydian, 1-2-3-#4-5-6-7: F to F (relative to Ionian that is 4 to 4)
Mixolydian, 1-2-3-4-5-6-b7: G to G (relative to Ionian that is 5 to 5)
Aeolian (aka Natural minor), 1-2-b3-4-5-b6-b7: A to A (relative to Ionian that is 6 to 6)
Locrian, 1-b2-b3-4-b5-b6-b7: B to B (relative to Ionian that is 7 to 7)
Most used to improvised on chords:
Ionian: Strongly inbedded in our Western cultural heritage as Major Key-Centre
Dorian: Use in i-IV progressions, lika Dm to G (or Dm to G7)
Phrygian: Use in a I-bII progression. like Em to F
Lydian: Use in a I-II progression, like F to G (most of the times it's F to G/F)
Mixolydian: Not really a progression, but when you pause on a dom7 chord for some time
Aeolian (aka Natural minor): Strongly inbedded in our Western cultural heritage as minor Key-Centre
Locrian: On a m7b5 chord, but it doesn't sound like anything on it's own in my opinion.
For me a m7b5 always lives in context within a progression, and most of the
time you'll hear a m7b5 as a 2nd degree (ii) in minor (ii-V-i > Bm7b5-E7b9-Am)

Major Pentatonic 1-2-3-5-6
minor Pentatonic 1-b3-4-5-b7
How does Pentatonics fit the Gregorian modes:
MAJOR PENTATONIC 1----2----3-------5----6------
Ionian (aka the Major Scale) 1----2----3--4----5----6----7-
Lydian, 1----2----3----#4-5----6----7-
Mixolydian, 1----2----3--4----5----6-b7---
MINOR PENTATONIC 1------b3----4----5------b7---
Dorian, 1----2-b3----4----5----6-b7---
Phrygian, 1-b2---b3----4----5-b6---b7---
Aeolian (aka Natural minor), 1----2-b3----4----5-b6---b7---
Note: Locrian does not fit within pentatonics because of the b5. The blues scale (1-b3-4-b5-5-b7) would not
be a solution either because of the natural 5.

bb7 = 6
Most used to improvised on chords:
Harmonic minor: Not often used on tonic chords within a jazz context, but in Metal it's more common
Locrian #6: Not often used
Ionian #5: Not often used
Dorian #4: Not often used within a jazz context, but cool to make a i-v (Fm-Cm) progression dreamy
Phrygian Dominant: Often used on 7b9 chords (That's the V7 within a minor progression)
Lydian #2: Not often used
Ultra Locrian: Often used on diminished 7 chords (a dim7 chord is nine out of ten times actually
an 7b9 chord is disguise. Within C minor; the V7b9 would be a G7b9, and the
upper structure of a G7b9 is a Bdim7 chord)
Note: within a minor chord progression the Vth degree is more often borrowed from Harmonic minor

SOME EXTRA SCALES
These scales are actually less practically used then most people realize, but none the less they
could spice things up:
Whole tone scale: 1-2-3-#4-#5-b7 (use on augmented triads (C+), or 7#5 chords)
Diminished scale whole-half: 1-2-b3-4-b5-#5-6-7 (use on dim7 chords)
Diminished scale half-whole: 1-b2-b3-3-#4-5-6-b7 (use on altered 7th chords)
respelling of 1-b2-b3-3-#4-5-6-b7 makes: 1-b9-#9-3-#4-5-6-b7
Note: diminished scales mainly have a rhytmic advantage because they contain an even numbering
of notes (eight of them instead of seven), so in that way a cool run/lick fit's more naturally.
