As a guitarist you have given me a better understanding of how 7ths work. Thank you.
-
The major 7 always gives me " Moon River " vibes ..My Huck-leberry friend !
-
Much thanks. wow, retired guy, have learned some basic diatonic theory over the years playing guitar, you are showing me how to make all work together with taste and choice. Buying an electric piano for my 65th Bday was some of the best money i've ever spent. Have i been playing the wrong instrument for 50 years? Why, yes, quite possibly. Been looking for a guy like you. Please carry on Good Sir💙

To the 7th and beyond. Thanks Adam. A great theory lesson broken down in an easy to follow manner. Well done.
-
Love the insight into how the 7th introduces a minor tone to the major triad and a major tone to the minor triad. Also, I really appreciated the clarity into how or when to apply the flattened 7th. If it's not written, maj7 (🔼7), then its flattened 7th helps my understanding.

Great video. More approachable theory would be great. Something on passing chords or secondary dominants or anything Neo-soul would be fab.
