Larry, You've done a great job with your video. However, I am disappointed to hear you say at 23:55 "usually the 2, 3, and 6 chords are minor." You should know that in the Nashville Number System all the chords are Major. I learned the NNS from the original "A" team...Charlie McCoy, Harold Bradley, Buddy Harmon etc. and I can tell you that this new concept that many are trying to infuse into the NNS that the 2, 3, and 6 are minor is false! You've spent a lot of time and energy in creating your video... I wish you would have said "all the chords in the NNS are major chords." In his book on the NNS, used by Berklee College of Music to teach the NNS, Chas Williams states..."A major chord needs no symbol. The number by itself ALWAYS means that it is a basic Major chord. Minor chords carry a minus sign to the right of the chord number, 6-." Paul Franklin, a world class Nashville musician has a great piece online that clearly explains the NNS and dispels the 2, 3, 6, minor theory as a false narrative...THEORY THE NASHVILLE NUMBER SYSTEM - PAUL FRANKLIN. You should check it out. I am sorry that you have created such a great video and have gotten this part incorrect.
Hi I'm sorry to get involved. But he did say Usually. And that is true you are going to find the 2,3,6 being minor chords a lot more than they are Major. The "Minor" comes from the Major Scale. C for instance has No #'s or b's. So a D chord is D F# A to get a minor chord you Flatten the 3rd. So no #'s means F# must become F. So D F A Makes a minor chord. A,C#E A Major becomes A,C,E Am E G# B E,G,B For an Em... I see so many (usually crappy) NNS video's on here that teach 2m 3m 6m 7dim. It finally took a Studio Musician to sit me straight. That I'm to assume the Chord is Maj unless I see it written other wise.
Very well done, Larry! I learned a lot more! Thank you!
