John Mclaughlin establishes the Dm7 tonality and then chromatically slips into the altered sound with the EbmMaj7. The Eb note then resolves up to the E natural. The resolution is finally established the F major arpeggio to create Dm7.

In the next bar John employs Db Lydian Harmony over the G7b5 chord. [The b5 of G7 of course being the Db note]. John keeps the G natural note to establish G7 and at the same time establish the #11 of Db harmony.

The first bar uses the A Harmonic Minor Scale over the Dm7b5 chord. John employs 4 note groupings [“Tetrachords”] to create a quick rhythmic alternate picking drive.

The 2nd bar uses the C minor Pentatonic scale: Notice how the F to E [from the previous bar] fall by 1/2 steps to the Eb creating a smooth connection.

In the 2nd example notice how to final two beats employ the C melodic “Jazz” minor scale.
