    at my level of amateurish intermediate, this is the most useful video that I have watched on youtube. I am not saying it is or is not the best but at my level and my love for funk, this is definitely the most useful. Thanks Jon and Jonny

    Thanks for the instructional video.
    For me, the chord that instantly proclaims "funk" is a (dominant 7)#9.
    Used to great effect on the Clavinets and electric guitars during the 1970s.

    @yvesjeaurond4937 Год назад

    Thank you. Helpful. Hip. Btw, in example 1, the 16th at the end of the bar is coming in late. I solve errors like this by using downbeat counting---subdivisions before the beat: "ta-ta-ta-4/" ta-ta-ta-1/ ...; for eighths, it would be "and 2/" and 3/ and 4/ and 1... Note how the "tatata" or the "and" is kept with the => next

  • @rloggen

    Great! Why change the key of Strassbourg? On the record it seems in A-flat (B-flat min 9 -> C min 9 -> D flat Maj 7). And the bass has a slight different pattern? But thanks, inspiring!

    • @suga4all
      @suga4all 11 месяцев назад

      I guess the flat 7 is already included in the fact that it is a dominant chord.

  • @keysmccarthy
    @keysmccarthy Год назад +1

    Nice tutorial but it must be said, what you describe as a "C13 sus4" is actually just a C13. The F is considered an 11th and part of the 13th chord, which at its full voicing is a 7-note chord: C (1) E (3) G (5) Bb (b7) D (9) F (11) and A (13). So your previous voicing of the C13 (with the 3rd and without the 11th) is still a C13 but with different degrees being played.

    • @AaronBowley

    • @robinbramlett110
      @robinbramlett110 11 месяцев назад +1

      True but naming it a C13sus depends mostly on how it’s voiced for me when I’m writing charts. There are times where the 11th is not played in the voicing and in that case I would go with a 13. When it is played I’ll write a C13sus to let the player know I want that 4/11 in that chord. For a C9sus chords though I just write C11 since the 4/11 is an integral part of that chord.

    • @robinbramlett110
      @robinbramlett110 11 месяцев назад

      @@AaronBowleyThe b7 is an integral part of the C13 chord along with the major 3rd. Changing that b7 to a major 7 would turn that chord into a Cmaj13.

    OK, you are playing the chords with two hands/ten fingers.
    My left hand is damaged and I'm able to play only bass notes with my left thumb.
    Therefore I have to split the chords in my head...
    Your first chord is c-9 (big letter "C" is a major chord, small letter "c" is a minor chord)
    In my head it is d#-maj7/C (or eb-maj7/C)
    Is this right?
