This may be wrong but in the Altered Dom lesson, the resolutions reminded me of the beginning of “I Can’t Help It” by Stevie Wonder. I guess he is going tritone sub for 5 to 1. Then the song goes a different, more cheerful direction. Your thumbline melodies reminded me of that first part though. Ok that’s all. 😉

Hi! Newly subscribed here. Can we make requests? I’d love a breakdown on Carla Bley’s Lawns. I know it’s a ballad and the melody is simple, but the harmony is different for me and I’d love a lesson on how to approach it. It’s haunting me right now! I guess Sco did it but for some reason swang it vs straight 8s 😀. Please excuse if requests are gauche. 😌
