Gilliangirl Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 play it like a barre'd Bm but move your fingers 2,3 & 4 down one string. Oh for heaven's sake, I should have been able to figure that out. Thanks Jeff. Cool chord. It certainly conjures up a distinct picture for me (good).

L5Larry Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 The jazz guys would call this either a: EM7(b3) E® B(5) D#(M7) G(b3) or G6(#5) E(6) B(3) D#(#5) G® Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rock guitarists play 3 chords in front of thousands of people, and jazz guitarists play thousands of chords in front of three people.....lol......ME?, I don't even know the names of any chords, lol. I play by ear, until my ear lobe starts bleeding...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rar Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 Don't know, but how on God's green earth do you play that? This got me to thinking ... How do people who keep their thumb on the back of the neck play 332313 (C7) and 323031 (G7), voicings that I use pretty frequently? Seems impossible. -- Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L5Larry Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 332313 (C7) and 323031 (G7) Now that's some crazy stuff. I couldn't play those fingerings on the fly with both hands. I never could use my thumb on the fretboard, it physically does not bend that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rock guitarists play 3 chords in front of thousands of people, and jazz guitarists play thousands of chords in front of three people OWF, so funny, and sooooo true. That got me thinking about one of my favorite songs we play in the big band. It's a Count Basie Band number written by Sammy Nestico called "Magic Flea". It's about a 3 1/2 minute song and I play 254 chords (yes I DID count them). That averages out to a little over a chord a second for the duration. If I only got paid by the chord. Edit, here's the youtube link to the song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sgEhcWTmMgg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the consequences of being a Rev Gary Davis fan is that you have to learn to cope with the "big C7" and "big G7". Move the C7 up seven frets, hit it hard, and "Okay, that's a RGD tune alright!" -- Bob R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
