Great lesson and analysis of chord transitioning. Truly enjoyed this lesson on a terrific song.

[@JazzSkills]

Thank you DrDee - much appreciated!

[@apm67775]

Thanks. An excellent application. However, I have noticed you have changed the second movement chord from Am7 which was notated there originally, to F6 (around minute 2:21). I have noticed that since I have paused the video and tried to apply the method myself finding the correct scale, and had no success of using the Cdim6 scale to that movement (which is the scale for Am7). So my question is why is it that way? why does the Cdim6 scale sound not right even if Am7 was the original chord, and how can I apply that change of chords in the future?

Great lesson.....

[@adrianolarotonda6154]

great lesson Shan.! I've watched some videos of Barry Harris talking about the importance of the minor six diminished scale but couldn't really understand. Now everything 's seems very easy and clear. I'm looking Forward for your next lessons. Thanks and enjoy your playing and teaching

[@JazzSkills]

Hi Adriano, Thanks so much and I wish you well with your playing until we speak again.

[@digitalninjatools5670]

[@JazzSkills]

Thanks Stuart, really pleased to hear it' helping you!

Thank you very much for this crystal clear lesson. But what chords/scale do you use on step-wise melodies on DOMINANT chords like in measure 8 ? Kent Hewitt has a drop 2 arrangement of this song on his channel but I still can't understand what scale of chords to use on dominant chords. :)

[@JazzSkills]

Thank you! Dominants have the most amount of choices as they come from the most scales. On this tune, I quite like the whole tone scale moves. You can learn about those on my channel.

[@jjtrinidad7437]

Thank you very much for this !

[@JazzSkills]

My pleasure - thanks for watching and for your comment. Best of luck with your playing.

[@kikkydavid-]

you are heaven sent.. I learnt the scale from Barris but got nothing on its application. but you've made it so easy and clear.

[@JazzSkills]

Glad you enjoyed the lesson. Wishing you good jazz.

[@alexjuarez9659]

[@jasonbarile2014]

I’m missing how the voicing of the very first F6 is an F6?

[@skidheart]

[@malts100]

I dont understand a thing pls help me understand

[@JazzSkills]

Try watching my more recent video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/h2WUn4OoqZV9n5I It will give you an overview of the system.

[@kukumuniu5658]

Our brains can see the difference in notation between Cmaj6 & Amin7 - the first chord is major ,second chord is minor but our ears have no eyes and hear just Amin7.
