If you take the C on top, and drop it down a whole step to a B-flat, you have your standard dominant 7th chord. It gives the chord a whole new sound while retaining the basic tonal center. Along with a lot of other rock writers, the Beatles did a ton of this in their music, which is why I made that particular connection. Try it out on a piano or guitar, David. It’s hard to explain the change that putting that 7th on the chord makes, but it gives it a hip kind of edge to it.
We always called that a “round robin”. Harder for me to do on guitar than piano. Would always “bar” an E and do it. Would be interesting to know how daverich does it on guitar!
Or, any other guitar player. David Day
Lake Lanier, GAOn my screen porch this evening drinking a Long Tall Cool One!
It’s a rainy night in Georgia!Listening to Levitate! Trying to find a song that’s in my head. Can’t remember the name of it, but maybe you can help?
Has something to do with “time to get a buzz on” and some form of “specialized skills” and hunting “turkey” and “squirrel”.
I couldn’t help but think ❗ …..Have we not talked about the “Hornsby Cookbook” and BBQ squirrel before? At that time, it was unanimous that BBQ squirrel would be SMP’s favorite! 😆
Trying to find that song! Can anyone help me find that song? It’s a great song! Some nice sax in it from Bobby! What is the name of that song?

Don’t be “bashful”! (Maybe the infamous MVF can correct me if I misspelled that wrong!)
Your thoughts are always welcome!David Day

No need to be “nervous”! More than likely, Bruce will show. Just remember, he puts his pants on one leg at at a time just like you do! 😆 I’m sure he will like you!
My only advice, for whatever it’s worth…..Remember Bruce is a piano player. Give him a “soft” “piano player” type of handshake. Not a “vice grip”, if you know what I mean. Bruce will appreciate that!
Enjoy!
That’s my story and I’m stickin to it!

Would be interesting for you to explain the “dominant 7th cord” thing in Paperboy!David Day
Lake Lanier, GArdiakun wrote:Yeah, Continents Drift ( wonderful song to crank in the car at a stoplight with the windows down). RichWhat about on your screen porch with the speakers cranked and a Long Tall Cool One in hand?
Happy 50th Rich! Hope you have many more!

Lake Lanier, GAWOW! I sorta feel “left behind” on this east coast tour here in the “Low Country”!

Lake Lanier (full pool!), GAI’m really warming up to Space is the Place! Is this the best song on the record? I dunno yet, but it sure reminds me of something else from another time. 💡 What do you think?
David Day
Lake Lanier, GASounds like you guys will have(had) a blast!
One day I will make it up there for an East Coast tour! Scary thought…..Isn’t it?What about some pics, Kat?

Lake Lanier, GAHeard PDT on Sirus/XM this evening on the Spectrum Channel while watching the sunset. Mark Goodman, old MTV guy, gave it a good intro! Seems like Bruce is getting some “coverage” on this one!

Lake Lanier, GAWalking Infraction wrote:I know “Liberal Lois” must be proud of this album… Bruce sure does lay his politics out on the line, probably more explicitly than ever.Great point Walking Infraction! You’re right! Is there some “subliminal messages” attached?
On the other hand…..You don’t have to agree. But, shouldn’t we be “respectful” of everyone’s “point of view”? Isn’t it the music and the “total package” that we like in Bruce?

VicI’m glad I was a renegade and “held out”!
It’s growing on me! It’s “creative”! To grow, you gosta be stretched and it will “stretch” you a little! On the other hand…..Isn’t that what we like about Bruce? Creativity in his studio music means great shows?
Can’t help but think that PDT is an “extension” of BSF. BSF grew on me on now it’s on my regular “rotation” because it’s very creative.
What do you think

Lake Lanier, GAHey Kat!
It sure is nice having the two of you “on board”!
I’ve told Carey this and I’ll tell you the same…..Thanks for all the great pics! David Day
Lake Lanier, GAmary wrote:No squirrels or bbq crap back there. Just good ol’ meat and potatoes and piece and quiet fishing on a lake. DAvid, I wonder how you, MOlo and I would fair in a boat together. Someone would surely go overboard. 😆
SMPHey Molo!
I got the smoker goin and I “bagged” six today! 😆 Five males and one female. You got any preference? 😆 (Sorry Walking Infraction, but it’s a southern thang! 😆 ) SMP, I got some commin yo way! 😆
SMP…..There would have to be two boats and one of us would have some “quiet fishing on the lake”. 😆

Lake Lanier, GASMP e-mailed me a pic of her and “The Vic” from the Boulder taping. Looking at the pic that SMP sent me and all the pics that Victor posts, it’s obvious that we do have an impersonator “on board”! Will the real “THE Vic”, please stand up! 😆

Lake Lanier, GAWow T! You’re a wealth of information! Thanks for that one!
