Pürbach 14 (Andy Bartosh)

As I understand it, 5 is not a standard figure (the 5 3 chord is implicit when there are no figures.) However you do see it in partimenti. Usually it’s identifying a melody note. Bare 5ths are...

What do you call power chords with chord symbols?

I think a capital letter is major. The triangle is explicitly telling us major 7th. You won’t see a triangle b7.

It is that time of year.... believe the rule of fashion is vertical stripes with white pants or white guitars - plus Brian didn't want to look fat.

Is this an overlooked part of Metheny's sound?

Apologies for not noticing this post. Yes, sorry, I should've given a context. I'm interested in two scenarios, 1) comping on the head (melody), 2) comping on the solo choruses. Thanks! :) ...

All of Me - A7 on measure #28 (9th?)

Is this an overlooked part of Metheny's sound?

I owned two of the Westerly made Guild Benedetto Artist Awards and after trying to like them (for too long), I let them both go. One was "very good" acoustically, the other was "fair" acoustically....

The triangle does two things. - indicates the three is major unless otherwise specified with a preceding "-", "m", or "mi". - locally and temporarily contravenes the unique symbol convention...

Good guitar tone for electric bossanova

Not quite done with my first pass through the circle of fifths, but we're doing the beach next week, so I figured I'd drop this in a little early. I'll just do whatever key I feel like for these,...

Summer of Rhythm … Changes?

I like it a lot. If I'm using a background track, I just unplug the microphone line and plug the backing track into that channel.
