Why is it that you can solo over dominant 7th chords with the blues scale when dominant 7ths dont have the flat 3rd note? Am I to assume that you simply dont use the flat 3rd when soloing over the chord? Or is it ok to use it in this instance?

At this time I would like to tell you that NO MATTER WHAT...IT IS WITH GOD. HE IS GRACIOUS AND MERCIFUL. HIS WAY IS IN LOVE, THROUGH WHICH WE ALL ARE. IT IS TRULY -- A LOVE SUPREME --. John Coltrane

It's ok to use it.

A characteristic of the blues is the conflict between a b3 in the melody and a natural 3 in the chords.
