Haha, well Reg, no need to take it personally.
I can't speak for anyone else but I've been busy implementing multi-million dollar systems for Fortune 100 companies for decades right up until now. So yeah, it can take awhile.

Are you using C7 as a III chord... altered.. Donna Lee in key of Ab as reference for Phrygian with added #9 or maj3rd.
I still hear most added notes as Blue Notes... but that's my hangup.

great post guys...!
ahh the 7#9 chord..in rock its the Hendrix chord..
Ted Greene gave me a timeless line..chords are only frozen melody notes..and after looking at many pages of his chord grids over the years
I began to see the voice movement between the chords in the progressions and the logic for some of the chord names..
so ok..Im forming the E7#9 chord E G# D G ..and I look at it ..wait now..it could be a Bb13 with E in the bass and suddenly a kaleidoscope opened
I had opened the harmonic range of just the one chord into many ..the diminished scale and all its chords and scales(tri-tone)
and the Steely Dan tune Peg came to mind..basically a blues but well dressed in Dan style...the opening chords move for 7#9s to MA9s chords (G7#9 GbMA9)
which gave me further insight of what and where to go from a basic 7#9 chord .. and now that I thought of it as a Bb13..Dame the torpedoes!!
I think of all the (right ways) to approach music-rules-uck!
new sounds are being created every day by young inspired musicians using the musical history of recordings and learning different views of music theory today..
I see a time coming when the concepts that guide music today--theory/chord names..even some harmonic concepts will be secondary to new applications in music
we must remember music is a living art form..and it evolves at its own rate and its own path..
Charlie Christian -> Wes Montgomery -> John McLaughlin -> Guthrie Govan
now with computer tech in the mix and guitars with more than traditional 6 strings .. and the use of micro tonal sounds ..the sounds we are used to will meet with
new ones that may take us time to get used to (if ever)
