Oh, I that Coltrane thing sounds like Giant Steps, I think it's called the Coltrane Matrix or something and has something to do with moving through keys in thirds, wikipedia says this "The changes serve as a pattern of chord substitutions for the ii-V-I progression and are noted for the tonally unusual root movement down by major thirds (as opposed to the usual minor or major seconds, see steps and skips, thus the "giant steps"), creating an augmented triad."

@junka22 I can't believe I didn't think to wiki it :) that kinda explains it but relative to all other theory I know it still shouldn't work!! but it does...

Hey Justin, thanks for the lesson - I love it! Just a quick question; the way you finger the diminished chords here, wouldn't they be diminished sevenths for the 1-b3-b5-6? Correct me if I'm wrong, I'm not too great with this stuff, lol. Thanks a lot for your lessons here, they are wicked!

[JustinSandercoe]

@DrakeBellCovers yes if I say diminished I mean diminished 7th always - R b3 b5 bb7.

[JustinSandercoe]

@amsterdamob not really. I can turn them off. But not enough people are donating or buying DVDs at the moment, so I need the extra revenue that the ads bring. Sorry, but if more people support the site voluntarily - then I will gladly take them off. I hate ads as much as everyone else.

If there was a decision to delete all of youtube and only backup 1 gb of the videos, I would choose THIS video for backup! Amazing with all the substitutions. I don't know a thing about music theory, but ever since I heard that coltrane substitution the first time, I have had those exact chords on my mind! I frequently come back to watch this video to enjoy the (to me) ecstatic tones! I really wanna pick this up as soon as I get the chance!
