A Dorian
A · B · C · D · E · F♯ · G
A Dorian is a natural minor scale with a raised sixth, and that single change lifts it from sad to cool and slightly wistful. It's the definitive modal-jazz sound, and just as important in funk, soul, Latin, and Celtic music. If a minor vamp sounds more groovy than mournful, Dorian is usually why.
