Nice chord changes. My personal preference is to call chords by the simplest possible name. The chord you call Gmaj13/B can definitely be viewed that way but if you consider the high note (E) in your voicing to be the root you can derive a simpler interpretation. With E as the root you end up with a second inversion Em9 chord. It would be written as Em9/B. The chord formula for minor 9 chords is 1, b3, 5, b7, 9. The chord spelling from low to high for the voicing that you are playing is 5, 9, b3, b7, 1.

Nice analysis. This is the fun stuff where theory is actual theory because there's more than one right answer :) I like to think of harmony based on what it sounds and feels like to me. In this progression it feels like Bm, then as soon as that open G is played it feels like Gmaj7. Since I play the open E on beat 4, it doesn't quite feel or sound like E minor to me, but if a bass player played a low E on beat 1 then it would definitely sound like Emin9! Thanks for sharing!!

Good Job

Chord analysis?!😮Okay you’ve lured me back to your KZread channel after weeks away working through two of your paid courses 😂! Yes I would LOVE more of this type of video, songwriting/analysis etc. Btw, I don’t see a link to the analysis workshop. This song sounds amazing. Can’t wait to hear the finished recordings. I hope your studio time is fruitful. Have fun!

@@soundguitar I look was looking for that link too, so will be looking for it. Thanks Jared!

Great lesson. Not refuting what you're saying, I was taught that you more or less label the chord as whatever the highest extension is (ie, adding the 11th would just be D11). It kindof implies that any of the other extensions, 7th, 9th, etc. could be added as well below it. This being said, your method is more descriptive. Appreciate all your content.

Thanks for the comment! That's correct specifically when there's a 7 present in the chord. If there's no 7, that's when we have to say "add" to make it clear that the extension is added onto a triad.

Great toon I love that style of playing chili 🌶️ might contact you to collaborate 👍🏾🎸
