      You can add extensions to 7ths but still call them that via lead sheet, though I agree he should've just labeled them what he actually played for beginners. Those Chords being; Dmin9, G13, & Cmaj9 respectively.

    would have been nice to put a 'v' in the last Cmaj bar on the 'steps' methode. It sounds kinda stupid to be honest to just walk in cmaj while as a bassplayer you can actually just play V's wherever you want (kind of). Makes the two boring cmaj bars more interesting...

      This is related to the rootless voicing question. A voicing will not have the root..except in the Bass. There has to be a root. Take the C maj.chord..C E G B D.. . It's just a Emin 7 Sans the C root. Another thing..the base player can play
      the C. Etc. Nobody will be stepping on each other.

    • @LeakyJAZZ
      @LeakyJAZZ 4 года назад +9

      No. I'm a bass player, not a pianist, but when you walk the bass, you usually play the chord's root on beat 1 and then anything else that leads to the next chord.
