E Dorian

E · F♯ · G · A · B · C♯ · D
E 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.
