Please note that there could be many other scales superimposed over the Country Jam Tracks. For instance, you could superimpose a D Major Pentatonic Scale over the C Lydian example. That will sound great, but please think of the notes in the key of C not in the key of D. It's best to think Degrees: D=2,E=3,F#=#4,A=6, B=7.
