Are you kidding me? I was right along with you in the beginning of that bichordal section, but once you dropped B Major on top of F7 I almost fell out of my seat. Awesome work, great food for thought. Thanks for posting!

You know what...you're freakin' awesome! Thank you for breaking stuff apart to see it more clearly! I'm a bassist and I just picked up some great tips! Thanks again!

wow, lots of reaches with the left hand huh? He plays the root with L5 then plays the 3 an octave higher.

Those bitonal sounds at the end were totally badass! A major on a Bb major 7 ends up sounding like Ritchie Beirach.

WOOOOW. Thank God for youtube!

Excellent... Thanks for sharing your knowledge... The theory will really help me improvise... My right hand is way stronger than my left hand... I need to get my chord voicings down. I'm doing a lot of straight 1, 3, 5, 7 voicings. I need to get those open or shell voicings down... Thanks again for this! Please do many more...
6:01-6:03. What chord is he using to make that run? I don't have an strong musical ear, please help!

@MasterThief1324, he is playing all notes that are inside the mode of G dorian: G A Bb C D E F, which corresponds to the Gm7 chord right there. He is spacing the notes very tastefully to create that beautiful voicing, but you can come up with something similar using G Dorian. G melodic minor also happens to work very well there: G A Bb C D E F#
