Wouldn't have a C# if it was based on A minor.

 

[notb665]

Wouldn't have a C# if it was based on A minor.

Who said it was based on Am?

Would that be classed as Dischordination?

So who said it was based on Am?

 

[megawatt]

A Minjor 7 ... Is that the same as a Ninjor Warrior?

 

[davy_owen_88]

Nope, its the name given to a chord that when played causes you to make a face like Jade Goody. Or is that A minger?

Damn this chord theory lark!

It's almost certainly as davy_owen_88 says. But the C natural is spelt wrong - it should be B#.

It is how davy_owen_88 says. It is what a pupil asked me and he came up with the name I mentioned. We both thought it was funny, and I hoped you would too.

Your pupil is also correct though. It could be A minor 7b11, although again spelt incorrectly. (should be Db, not C#)

 

[notb665]

Your pupil is also correct though.

Really? Read again what my pupil said.
