I only like it because I learned it that way, from Louis Prima's version...which is in Ab actually! I'll take a look later or tomorrow and chart out the whole thing...Monk of course does this too,...
I don't think the progression is that. I think it is: {F-or-Dm7} {Fm-or-Bb7} {C-or-Em7} A7 Dm7 G7 C I've seen it many times and I'm never sure which specific chords to pick when I have to write a...
Are you working from a particular arrangement? Is this group focusing on a particular arrangement or working on making an arrangement? I've seen a number of different arrangements, some that see the...
But I've seen the A section resolve to C, B section start on C7 (suggesting an F target), then A7 Dm to form the complete two-step minor cadence (whether or not you see it as a minor II-V-I). Bye Bye...
Maybe this explains a weird experience I had one time on a BB gig where on the stand, the band was mic'd. and sounded like crap from where I was set up. Out of tune, weak sound, etc... We took a...
All I was thinking is that if the progression is C7 A7 D7 G7 C, would you want to think about C7 (bearing in mind that Em7b5 is a rootless C9) to A7 being a II V in D? And then think of A7 to D7...
Oh, I see what you mean now, thanks. Yes, the hammer-nail saying is very true, painfully.
Youre playing 16ths at 320? Mr Holdsworth? Is that you?
Sure I guess so. C7 is a fine sub for Em7b5 and vice versa, but you can make anything a ii-V if you think hard enough. To a hammer, every problem is a nail. Just seems like in the key of C, I’d...
Oh I should do that, then I can give them the “in jazz, we play in all 12 keys” bit.
A horn player once asked me if I couldn't provide a little more "low end" in Eb. This was before Boss invented the polyphonic OC3 octave pedal. He didn't ask me again.
I can see all of this. Thanks! Do you refer to this? I see G7 = Bm7b5, C7 = Em7b5. In fact, for half-diminished, I've been practicing a specific piano voicing that has 1, b5, b7, 11, no...
