A practical incredible resource of amazing instruction, demonstration and poetically applied theory that I wish I'd known about 50 odd years ago! This will happily supply my mind with all its needs until my eventual demise. Thank you so much.
I always teach , in parallel with 7note harmony, 8note harmony. simply adding the b6 to a major scale generate Major6 chord (m7) and all its inversions, and a diminished7 chord. Knowing all my inversions AND how to resolve them up or down from Diminished7 chords (that include 2 tritones) is a crucial step to understand movement! You can do this with a minor scale too, giving you Minor6 (m7b5) movements, that can be used either as a “home” chord, or a tension chord. Anyways, always a good idea to explore multiple ways of doing things! This is Barry Harris theory by the way, works great on guitar!
Interestingly, analysing 7note diatonic chords with this system takes things into perspective; in C : Cmaj7-Dm7-Em7-Fmaj7-G7-Am7-bø converting ( inverting) m7 into major 6 : Cmaj, Fmaj, Gmaj, Fmaj, G7, Cmaj, Dm6 I IV V IV V7 I ii Guess we’re back at the blues! In this theory, major7 are borrowings from the diminished chord, and are truely resolved at a. major6 chord
Please never stop making videos. These are each beautiful works of art and so valuable. Thank you. 🙏
Your videos are works of art.
Thank you so much!
Damn, this style of video looks extremely interesting! I also think that guitarists should take some inspiration from chordal voicings of pianists

Fantastic channel. Can you tell me what software you used to create the animations of yourself playing? Looks very cool.
Cheers
