  • Thanks for the nice words! And sure -- lots of chords don't work in progressions. I lean toward using the Circle of 5th and half-step slides for my subs, but there are other things as well...

  • beautiful. As a terrible but aspiring jazz musician, I'm lousy at finding the right chord to jazzify my compositions because I'm always thinking it has to be a certain chord like a 7th or a weird inversion of a 7th to qualify as jazz. Of course you also know how to play those inbetween notes that transist so smoothly into the next chord. Hearing you do so many substitutions, are there any chords that really do not work well going from one to the next?

  • Awesome tip

  • You're the man!!!!!

  • very helpful, thanks!
