Ive seen this video before. Meh


I see people posting on how to learn tritones all the time, but if f you really want to learn about tritones and fully understand the concept and application of putting them in gospel songs, then you nee to get Jamal's 'Tritone Extravaganza." Im sure GospelMusician would like that. lol
No lie, its the best info on the subject as it pertains to gospel applications. I worked with it, and now I can pull em out during playing in pretty much any key.

As i understand it, the key to tritones is to realize that the 3rd and 7th of a dominant 7th chord are the 7th & 3rd of another dominant 7th chord, which is a tritone away!

Clear as mud, right?!

Hee, Hee...just as there are only 3 diminished chords, (on C, C# and D), all the others are just inversions of these...
