A CLASSIC Chord Progression

[@seanmccafferty2296]

It's amazing that a single chord can immediately be recognised as one particular song.

[@Korvext]

slip inside the eye of your mindd

[@christophermolitor4554]

I can actually say that part of Layla changed my life. I dont think I ever truly noticed music before I heard it. It was the start of my curiosity in how music was made.

[@brycel.williams8624]

best jazz education platform on the planet…by a country mile!

[@mauricemcguillicutty4746]

For years Layla was the only piece of music wherein I heard the bVII13#11. Then I discovered jazz!

[@williamotule]

from clapton??where?

[@L.Rayne.Hubbard]

@@williamotule Well Derek and the Dominios in the Layla coda credited to Jim Gordon. C > C/E > F > Bb7#11 (forget the exact voicing)

[@Dekoherence-ii8pw]

I think it's in Airbag by Radiohead too.

[@Dekoherence-ii8pw]

@@williamotule In the outro section of Layla.

[@williamotule]

@@Dekoherence-ii8pw OK thx I'll chck it out

[@wickedg]

It's shocking how immediately recognizable Layla is.

[@brianalondite]

I have permanent stankface from this channel. You made learning Jazz Theory not awful. Thank you.

[@buddyryeSE]

LOL! Stankface is my goal in life. Hahaha!

[@dannous]

Man that chord of Layla wraps up the entire song. I was talking about this exactly few days ago. Some songs are represented basically just by one chord. That specific chord reminds me one night with a girl I was deeply in love. I met her 5 times in my life and still affected my life so much. Not always for the better 😂

[@azarimy]

I love your videos. I teach architecture. I find a lot of similarities with transitioning between chords and between rooms/spaces for me. In fact, I recently used your videos to show an example to a student who was trained in music, to illustrate how moving from major chords can be boring. Adding flair in between the chords would spice it up, sometimes it becomes jazzy, sometimes more soul. Just like designing spaces. Moving from room to room can be mundane, but you could spice things up with transition spaces! Cool!

[@ottawasunset]

Y'all are great, honestly. A smile every time.

[@joeobyrne9348]

I simultaneously hate and love that you got me with this. I had no clue where you were going with this....but it was well worth being got...what a song!

[@JustinViola]

I just love you guys at Open Studio.

[@emanuelmota7217]

Love "Layla", including the outtro (from drummer Jim Gordon).

[@ObjectorSnark]

iirc, rita coolidge actually wrote the coda as the backbone of a song she was working on with gordon on another project. he was in clapton's studio after hours working on it on the sly when clapton showed up in the studio. rather than get pissed off or firing him he let him slide but said "you've *got* to give me that coda."

[@VanStoreltd]

These vids are a little bit of heaven for me... It will sound like this all the time!

[@TheGrunch64]

Love how he says it'll attract jazz musicians like he's warning you. Beware the jazz musicians

[@nadtorus]

right after you pressed the Bb7#11 chord, I immediately humming that Layla melody, and I'm sure I'm not alone. Just shows how iconic that song is.

[@friasrod]

I love how you deconstruct melodies to expand new sounds. And like many others here, those 7 minutes changed my life. One of the most beautiful and difficult songs in the world. Well done lads.

[@davidhuffaker4559]

This and Vintage stereo are my Favorite Channels you guys are Fantastic

[@justinromano1989]

These KZbin shorts are just butter 🧈

[@Lianpe98]

"That will attract some jazz musicians though" Everything has its downside, even in music harmony 😆

[@jameswhitley4101]

Sometimes we have to make sacrifices if we want to excel

[@bimini1216]

The art of simplicity is the key to all music. Humans get fatigue when we over complicate it. Simple with a little extra flair is always the warm way to play

[@ashtoncrawford6280]

this music makes me happy

[@hainstorm]

I personally really like moving from the F major 7 to an Fm6/9, and then moving the pinky down from the ninth to the upper F :) love from California!

[@christophervincent3520]

The last version sounds very like the playout of Eric Clapton's Layla. Always loved this playout and now I know why?

[@pmartinsoliveira]

This channel is AWESOME!!!

[@josvanschagen2784]

That totally caught me by surprise! Amazing, as per usual.

[@dreamphonix]

You're so smooth! Perfect timing and intellect

[@buddyryeSE]

Ending on the Cmaj7 after the Bb7#11 is just butter...

[@anonamos8129]

Hitting the outro to Laylah there!

[@tonioarango5078]

Love you guys!!

[@L.Rayne.Hubbard]

Ok, I heard those first two chords and saw that Bb7#11 coming a mile away. Damn it's so satisfying.

[@llyllallyll]

if it doesn’t have a moo chord i don’t want it 😭😭😭

[@jasonjulius1262]

Good fellas.....

[@austinwheeler3665]

Just got the Black Friday deal; really looking forward to trying this out. I’ve been following these shorts for awhile and seems like you guys really know your stuff.

[@dciccantelli]

Excellent stuff !

[@BrutusAlexis]

LOVE it! ❤🎹

[@riquelme3764]

Is there a way to play a tritone sub without attracting jazz musicians? Asking for a friend

[@TypingHazard]

Power chords. Rock music has a ton of progressions which only make sense (if you NEED them to "make sense") if you assume the upper extensions were considered and then intentionally thrown out

[@MrLocust4]

we WILL find you.

[@geocosmicvalentine]

If you don’t attract you’re probably creating several.

[@stevia3162]

I want to see Snoopy dancing around the piano!😊

[@schlxm7016]

[@gilldavidmour4199]

Nice, a little Jim Gordon there.

[@smileydoug]

Well done!! GREAT ad. You guys are on a whole different level. From a loyal follower, Im now headed to Open Studio to take a look at membership. Bravo.

[@laptopuser5198]

I'm going to become a open studio member and I haven't played in years.

[@matthewcleghorn9371]

Ya got me 🎉

[@closemindedpodcast]

True story: I’ve been known to slip this progression into my instrumental playing at church. The reactions I get make it all worth it 😂

[@sebastian1200]

That’s a part of Layla outro…awesome sound!

[@Dekoherence-ii8pw]

0:34 Layla!!! 0:35 Yep! Layla!!! :-)

[@chickinuggit4487]

this very interesting and helpful maybe

[@marcelomollomusica7737]

Gracias por estos Tips que nos ayudan a ser un poco mejores.

[@bassplayer10]

You guys are too good at everything. Am I watching AI?

[@roeymishal8009]

I really expected a minor 4th there but those sounded way better in my opinion

[@robertarcilla1118]

me and my band are planning to perform a cover of layla at our next gig, its one of my lead's fav songs :D

[@musthpakamael3742]

You so good baby❤❤❤❤

[@adamscottyork6008]

What’s amazing is as soon as I heard that chord, I sang the line with the piano. But couldn’t remember what song it was from til I checked the comments.

[@AaronLS.]

Damn that was good

[@4IdiotsGaming]

That Bb7#11 sounds right out of an ELO song.

[@spew2864]

Layla quote

[@briankyle4657]

That chord in that movie, I remember the first time I heard it thinking wow the composer has hit the nail on the head, if ever a chord had a feeling that was it. and then I realised that it wasnt even written for the movie, the perfect track to both complement and juxtapose the scene in the movie provides one of the most perfect musical moments in a movie. As good as the twentieth century fox intro to aliens when it doesn’t finish the fanfare cadence, that was sheer genius, generates such an uneasy feeling right from the off. Always amazes me just how much a simple sound can have such profound impact on how you feel and especially when Adam is at the keys!

[@dave_manley]

Except that Clapton didn't write it.

[@engelbertschoormans]

this bVII13#11 is a typical Beatles chord!

[@angicom1464]

The last variation seems layla by Eric Clapton

[@MuhammadIqbal-dp2es]

Eric clapton ❤❤❤

[@spearitbomb]

Steve Winwood ❤️🎹

[@MuhammadIqbal-dp2es]

@spearitbomb so the guy who plays piano is Steve. Wooow well done stevie.

[@GruntDestroyarChannel]

@@MuhammadIqbal-dp2esthe guy playing piano here is Adam madness. Steve winwood is a pop star and piano player from the 80s/90s, known for Valerie and Higher Love

[@tylerthompson1842]

I’m expecting him to say “That sounds good, I like that 😏.”

[@MrDeevo]

Nice Elton John styling

[@Mathemarius]

At the Db7#11 I hear the notes Bb and Ab alternating, but not the G which would be the #11. Can somebody explain?

[@pauleugene8286]

Anyone else whistle the ending when he hit the chord?

[@deanc.5984]

I want to learn music language!

[@huwjames999]

What mode is the Bb7(#11) borrowed from?

[@gabimeredith1]

Bb7 #11 belongs to Bb lydian dominant, or C mixob6 (same scales, just starting on different roots)

[@linotom1887]

do you play the bass on piano🎹along with the upright.🎻? ...pros and cons? 🤔

[@seeker3015]

Now i want to pick up a piano😭

[@Sim-Son]

Great

[@nezkeys79]

Should have played the entire layla piano riff tbh ❤

[@grapplepunk5977]

Layla is taken from the Rita Coolidge song Time. Are we all agreed on this?

[@n.oneimportant5]

Agreed here. Jim Gordon - by all accounts a troubled man - claimed credit for her work.

[@onlimi616]

This is the first I've ever heard of this. You guys are giving me an education!

[@edpalmeida]

Silly Love Songs

[@kenster3554]

I laughed because I thought of Layla immediately when he hit the Bb7#11 even before he flashed the album cover! I’m like one of Pavlov’s dogs! 🤣 BTW, credit goes to Rita Coolidge for writing the piano coda to Layla, even if she was uncredited.

[@cometoyoursenses9310]

I didnt know abıut her, thank you❤

[@kenster3554]

@ Yeah, research it.” Rita’s sister Priscilla recorded her song “Time” with Booker T., which is the piano coda of Layla, which Rita’s then boyfriend, Jim Gordon plagiarized.

[@ramblinevilmushroom]

do you guys have an episode on how to read the chord notation? I cant read lmao

[@GabrielGee]

I was thinking Silly Love Songs lol
