Best Night and Day video ever Andy! 🙌 One of your best ever videos here with instruction galore, very informative and I loved the walkdown and your explanations on how and why! Yes, one of your best! 🤩
Really nice instruction! Love that you demonstrated the chords on an acoustic archtop! As beginners would really learn from this kind of lesson I could see additional benefit of a once through at the end playing the correct melody on top of the changes. Some people learn by hearing (rather than reading notes from a real book) and it's often so hard to be sure you're learning the correct melody from, say, Frank Sinatra's vocal or whatever. Really appreciate this insight to the song I've been working on all weekend.
Your explanations are an art form in themselves. One question: Was Cole thinking of these technical things when he wrote the tune, or just dreaming up a tune and some chords to go with it?
Thanks Matt. Great question. I’ve read that he wrote the words and the music at the same time. Maybe that is why he is so different. A lot of standards have words added later by a lyricist.
I love Cole Porter’s music as it transcends time and space.The music touches my soul and those around me.What a gift to reproduce such delightful art! How lucky are we to contemplate doing so?
Thanks Alex. I don’t often teach the intros as most people don’t play them. This does have a fun one though! I love the Django Reinhardt electric version. I’ve now got that intro stuck in my head 😂
The bIII to I change in the B section reminds me of the Gordon Lightfoot song Daylight Katy, from his Endless Wire album. The introduction of the song and the first four lines of each of the verses repeat DMaj7 to BMaj7 (played as CMaj7 to AMaj7, with a capo on the second fret). It's a very distinctive sound, and I wonder if this is where Lightfoot picked it up.
Gordon was pretty creative with his chords. Just had a listen and yes very reminiscent. Think I need to listen to some more of Mr Lightfoot! It’s great when we can make these connections between songs.

I get what you’re saying, but when I make videos I don’t like to assume too much about who is watching. It’s also one of the interesting ways Porter tweaks regular progressions.
Love this tune! The perfect combination of a strong melody and interesting chord progression. Let me know if you have any questions 👍
Great stuff Andy, just catching up now. Totally comprehensive as ever. 🙏
Thanks Stuart
Thanks for this lovely (and very doable!) comp for Night and Day. Indeed the best I've seen on TH-cam. Looking forward to more of your lessons.
Glad you liked it Nanda!
Thanks for the lesson Andy. I hope your mum is doing the best she can despite the struggles
Thank you Colin 🙏
@@jazzguitarwithandy Yes prayers indeed
My music theory isn't great, but every time I watch one if these, it makes a little bit more sense. Nicely explained.
Thanks Andrew. I think you’ll find the more songs you learn the more you start to make connections. That’s how it worked for me.
GREAT tune, now let's deep dive into it. Thank You for all the material on PATREON !
Thanks Gilles. Get stuck in 🥳

Thanks Robert - that's very kind of you to say. Glad it's ok to follow!
Love the chords, great tune to learn and always a lesson that is easy to follow. Thanks Andy.
Thank you Stuart. It’s got plenty of interesting parts. I love that B
Another great lesson Andy 🙏
Thanks Andy 😎
Thank you for such great teaching. You teach the way I like and the way many teachers should teach! I am very grateful.
Thanks - glad you find the style of teaching helpful.
Excellent lesson Andy. Definitely A level chord theory here.
Great lesson. Love that Gibson, too!
Thank you! Me too, gigged it last night and the volume on the amp hit that sweet spot where it sounded just right 👍
@@jazzguitarwithandy L7 or a different model?
Thank you!!🎸👍👍

You're very welcome - I'd love to cover it as you suggest but sadly doing that can be an issue here on YT.

Lovely! But where is the intro, "like the beat beat beat of the tom tom"?

@@underwoodvoice9077 that is interesting 🧐
this was good, relatable. retain the shape, with an upper or a downer.
Great song to learn!
that'll hook me, harmony
hey guy, crazy about this today. What A Difference A Day Makes - TH-cam
You're over thinking the Dm7b5. It's the 2nd chord of the C harmonic minor. Can be explained in like 20 seconds.
