Hey. Interesting idea but somewhere along the line u lost me. you said that the 3rd of Db is F then you said the 3 of F# is A. The F# chord in Db is a Maj7 so how does it become A?

[TheHammondman]

The minor or flatted 3rd of F# is the A, sorry about that, I'm looking at it in the context of the F# key itself, not in relation of Db

[taxikband]

So is it a situation where u can use either the minor 3rd or major 3rd. I'm looking at the 1st example about the F being the 3rd of Db. Are you saying then that the minor 3rd (E) could have been used instead of the maj 3rd F? Help!!!!!! i'm really eager to learn.

[TheHammondman]

If the song is in the key of Db major, you can use the major 3rd, (which is played as a minor, because it's a minor in the scale degree), can be subbed for the one...BUT now it's a lead in chord going to the 6th!

EX:

5. AbEb / GbBbDbF___CBb / CEbAb___DbAb / Db

EX 2:

AbEb / GbBbDbF___CBb / CEbAb___FEb / ADbEbAb

Now that last chord in example 2 will lead into the: BbF / AbCC#F OR THE 6TH OF Db

This is great, could you possibly post how you play call and response songs such as "I'm a Soldier" and "Have you tried Jesus".

That'd be excellent, thanks
