Let's talk music, no genre boundaries


This is an offshoot of the jazz thread. I and others found that we could not talk about jazz without discussing other musical genres, as well as the philosophy of music. So, this is a thread in which people can suggest good music of all genres, and spout off your feelings about music itself.

If we take the 4 notes in their 4 possible combinations we get (someone please correct this if I’ve made any mistakes) : 

A, C, G, D = R, b3, b7,11 or sus 4   = Am7/11

C, G, D, A = R, 5, 9, 6                      = C add 6/9 (no 3rd)

G, D, A, C = R, 5, 9, 11 or sus 4      = G add 9/11 (no 3rd) or G add 9 sus4

D, A, C, G = R, 5, b7, 11 or sus 4    = D7 sus 4

I wonder how these chords played as a progression might affect our DNA...

 

 

I am posting a Van Morrison song that I wanted to post on the jazz forum, but I knew that others would not consider this song jazz. Yet I listen to it the way I listen to jazz. Not intricate, heady jazz, but something that lifts my spirit. I consider Van Morrison's voice to be the improv lead. So, go ahead and slap me across the face and say, "No way that's jazz."
