About the Backing Track
Chord Progression: 

II     Cmaj7     II     Cmaj7    II     Dm9      II         G13     II 
II   C6/9  II     C6/9       II      Dm9      II        G13       II

Description: 

In theory, you can play C major scale all over this, though preferably outlining the chord tones/arpeggios:

Cmaj7 arpeggio = c e g b 
Dmin7 arpeggio = d f a c 
G7 arpeggio = g b d f 

Playing C Major scale will result in C Ionian (Cmaj7 chords), D Dorian (Dm7 chords) and G Mixolydian (G7 chords) - all the same 7 notes...
Next up, try out some more advanced colours on the dominant chord (G7/G13) by using the 

G diminished 1/2-1 tone scale = G Ab Bb B C# D E F (G)
