3 Chords That Are The Foundation Of Music (Major, Minor, and Dominant)

Hello Cherries! I was in a music store the other day playing and a beginner guitarist asked me how he could get that good. I thanked him for that. He then asked if he should learn a chord book. I said no, and that he should start by learning to use his ear. Hear the sounds of the chords. There're really only 3 types of chords, Major, which is "happy," Minor which is "sad," and Dominant which is "tense and restless." The faster you learn to differentiate between those 3 chords the better off you are. You've heard them all your life you just need to connect them to your fingers.

I figured I'd make a video of it 😊 I take 1 chord, a D. I'll play it as Major, Minor, and Dominant over chord progressions that we'll make from their chord families. Then I'll show you how they all connect. Enjoy the video at YouTube/JerryCherryBand and have a great week Everybody 🎸
