So basically if you were soloing over a Cm, Fm, G progression using the C minor/Aeolian scale you would either need to switch to harmonic minor over the G chord or just avoid the 7th altogether. Otherwise the 7th of the C Aeolian will clash with the major third in the G chord and you will create a tear in the space-time continuum, cats and dogs will live in peace and harmony, and Spud will take up the glockenspiel.
Yup yup yup.
