    Nice lesson Maestro. This should open doors for a lot of folks.
    These are what I call Holly Grail chords. Add a few straight minors, 7's, 9's, and 13ths and you can seriously play THOUSANDS of popular songs in several genres.
    I know eith out a doubt that I can play dozens of Oldskool jams just using the shapes you are teaching in this video. Everything from Luther, EWF, BarKays, ConFunkShun, Brick, Isley Brothers, Prince, Commodores and many others. Same holds true for today. They just call it Neo Soul now...but it's all just OldSkoolFunk and R&B to me...👊🏾

    Bruh, that was a GREAT TUTORIAL! I’m beginner/novice in learning to play R & B music and this just opened up my soul and brain to a whole new world! You explained that so simply and that made it very encouraging for a self taught guitarist like me.
    Believe it or not but i’ve been a metalhead for most of my life and probably still am but somehow gravitated to funk/soul/r & b in the last couple of years and even wrote my first few complete songs this year (feels damn good). Thanks for sharing and i’ll be watching!

    Thanks Kerry - I have known these chord shapes for years but it is your phrasing with the hammer on and pulls, arpeggiating and sliding between the chords that make you 2 smooth...You are a great teacher and player.

    My favorite chords are Major & minor 7ths with a couple of Major 9th chords from time to time. I play more of a fusion funk/ Latin fusion, so that's why I like those chords. I think you're one of THEE BEST teachers out there, God Bless you for that!!! Stay safe my friend, Rock(R&B) On & God Bless!!!
