| Great job, Dale! It is a fun and easy listen, but the choices you made for chord voicings make it an interesting one too. |

Thank you Fred ... There are SO MANY Chords and Voicing's that neck that I may never remember them all ... I'm constantly breaking out my calculator to figure out what on earth I'm playing.

| Your P5-6-7 chord at the end of the intro is a 13b9 voicing with the 13th on top and the b9 in the middle somewhere. It’s the V dominant of whatever key you’re in (A?). |

Thanks Fred ... I have SUCH a time trying to keep all that stuff straight in my head. I'm getting better at it generally, but not at a very deep level yet. I was looking at my "Jazz Theory for Pedal Steel Guitar" book last night (yes I actually study this stuff LOL) and looking at some of Daniels charts, and on ONE fret using the SAME string groupings, DEPENDING on which string you're using as the root, those groupings could be a half dozen different chords. That is a real hang up for me as I'm trying to find the "exact" chord by its name, and it just doesn't matter, cause you can call it a half dozen things and its still gonna sound the same, and they all reside right under your hand. Its a huge stumbling block for me.

Exactly right, Dale. The rootless 9th chord, for example, can be used 4 ways that I know of, and take on a different name for each purpose. If you’re playing jazz on E9, the easy access to a couple of different 9th and 13th chord voicings is maybe the only advantage that neck has over C6.
(I don’t know who Daniel is) |
