The Triple Triad Trick!

[@GitShiddy]

This is what make Jeff a great teacher. This is stuff I know, this is stuff I do and in spite of that this is still educational and inviting and engaging.

[@JeffMcErlain]

Ah thank you. I really appreciate that!

[@chrisboule970]

This series of lessons with one simple concept used in multiple ways has been really great!

[@JeffMcErlain]

Thank you!!

[@wonder6789]

Has a Khruangbin sound

[@GuitarguyRichard56]

Great lesson and you are a fantastic teacher who gives many great ideas in one lesson

[@WickBeavers]

thanks, Jeff! every time i Work on one of your KZbin vids, I feel like I get better. Cheers!

[@JeffMcErlain]

That’s awesome to hear!!

[@davidcromwell6805]

What a quality masterclass! It's cool that you give examples of songs where this 'triple triad trick' occurs. I always wondered about 'Freeway Jam' as well. And 'Heartbreaker' too. Thanks Jeff!

[@JeffMcErlain]

Thanks for always being here David!

[@randysimons9844]

Since the backing riff does not include a 3rd it is neither minor or major. Change the 1 chord triad to minor and you get a Dorian vamp which is also very cool over the track

[@JeffMcErlain]

Yes. As I had said!😉

[@davidhayes488]

Excellent. Thank you!

[@JeffMcErlain]

You're very welcome!

[@LP-qi8hs]

Another great video, cool tricks e and great sound. Thanks man.

[@denmar355]

Good stuff! So much useful ideas for pop/blues/rock. Modes used to scare me, until I realized that there is “a note” that is the reason for the sound of the intervals in each mode. Major modes=mixo has the flat 7th. Lydian=raised 4th. In minor modes, Dorian is just natural minor scale with natural 6th. Phrygian=flat 2nd.

[@JeffMcErlain]

Yup!

[@lockeshill]

Crazy timing 🤔 I just wrote a melody the other day that I couldn’t get out out of my head. When I finally figured out the obvious chord progression to lay over it…yup it was 1…b7…4. Now I know why it sounds so damn good.

[@JeffMcErlain]

That’s awesome!

[@scbradford20]

Great lesson and demonstration!! The intro and solo section in "Let It Rain" by Eric Clapton incorporates some of these triad ideas also.

[@JeffMcErlain]

Great suggestion!

[@spideymarino]

[@thechahal]

Thanks for the video, great stuff. I'm finding the backing track link does not work.... Sorry, we couldn't find that page

[@JeffMcErlain]

Oops! Thanks for letting me know! Try this jmguitarlessons.com/admin-app/courses/1784126/curriculum/lessons/53115329

[@timothy5974]

Excellent lesson Mr. Jeff. I always struggle with developing my chord progressions. So you used the G major chord because it’s the characteristic note in the mixolydian scale? b7

[@JeffMcErlain]

Exactly!!!

[@47fishandchips]

first link worked but second and third to track and ebook didn't

[@JeffMcErlain]

Just checked them again and they are working for me, so I’m not really sure what is going on. Maybe try a different browser? Thanks for letting me know!!
