Nice tutorial brother........Chord wise though the first chord is a Bb9Sus4, The second chord is a Fm/Bb (slash chord) and the 5th chord is also a Cm7-5 (half diminished chord). Just wanted to explain that so other adventurous musicians could find those chords or explain them if need be. Keep up the good work though! The progression is really just a 6-3-1-4 with passing chords at the end. The end goal is to get back to the Bb (6 Chord) so they used the 7th chord as a secondary dominant to F and then used the augmented 4th as a secondary dominant to get back to the Bb(6th). For those who maybe interested in how to create a chord progression like that on their own. Sorry for the short theory explanation.
Thanks for the quick theory lesson man! I might need you email address or something because i ALWAYS have questions about chord names. For example, what would you call a chord that consists of the notes F# C F?
One question! If the '7th chord' (C is the 7th in Db Major) is the secondary dominant of the 3 (F)... then the 'augmented 4th' (the F chord which is actually the 3 of Db) is referring the 4th of the C Major scale correct? .... I understand how the Cm7b5 acted as the slash chord by replacing the 3... but why take the secondary dominant of the 6 (the Faug) to bring you back to it? Thanks.
Carleton Maybell this was such a thorough video. Needed this song. You’re like that cool teacher who always make class enjoyable. Will be coming back to your page. Thumbs up 👍🏿
I really appreciate people like you who don't mind sharing & educating lazy people like me. I had playing a song over and over again trying to learn it. Thank you again!!!!!
Very nice tutorial! Appreciated you giving the chord names and breaking down the bass. Most people will give you the basic chords but will gloss over the tricks and flips to make it sound funky. I'm like "chords are nice and all, but show me THAT! I'm not trying to sound just like everyone else. I wanna stand out." Lol, good tutorial bro! If you got more, I'm definitely clicking like on the next one.
Thanks for watching and thanks for your comment! Very motivating. I have plenty more tutorials and I also supply sheet music now to help people follow along!
Love the vids, bro. You ever think about putting together a theory course on why all these chord progression/melodies/voicings work? I know there are a ton of music theory courses, but I find your way of explaining things super clear. Just a thought.
Man I’m a BIG FAN ALREADY!!! Is there a way I can request a chord breakdown? I wish I can play by ear. I have a song request for some super sick chords I’ve been trying to learn forever. I’ll post the link if you can. Please let me know. Much appreciated in advance.
you brother.... the truth!!!! thank you!!!! great teacher. I love music and I appreciate the joy you've brought to my musical world haha. Thank you sir!!!
Great video, I enjoyed your singing despite what other people were saying....... Just a couple of notes since I went to music school....that F chord at the end wouldnt be a suspended chord if it has an A in it which is the major 3rd interval, suspended chords don`t have 3rds, its really acting like an F7#5 chord or an F#5 (Augmented) the way you are playing it...... Also , wouldnt the Eb m6 chord actually be Cm7b5?.....because its like a 2 5 1 jazz progression in Bb minor; Cm7b5 F7#5 Bb9sus4 ......I could be wrong but thats how Im interpreting it....thanks.....
Wow you just taught me lol I knew that the last chord was a suspended. I just got my words mixed up in the video. But I didnt know about the whole 2 5 1 progression.
