| Here's a 2 second sample. The guy plays 4 chords, and I'd like to know if someone could identify what he's playing for me. I'm particularly interested in 4th chord. http://ludetc.homeunix.org/ok/4chords.mp3 I hear a D alright. But beyond that, maybe a Bb? thanks-- | |

| His left hand plays the same 4 note rootless Bb7 rootless voicing four times. The left hand Bb7 voicing is played in unison with a blues lick in the right hand: E Eb Bb D (there is a D# grace note slurred into the E and a C# grace note slurred into the last note D) | |

| Spelling the left hand voicing from the bottom up: G D C Ab | |

| I kinda hear a descending m2 between the 3rd and 4th chord. Could the LH be Ab C D Gb on the 4th chord? Or even Ab D D Gb ? thanks! | |

| correction, Read: -- Or even Ab B D Gb -- | |
| Jazz+ -- 09/19/2007, 13:32:17 -- #37159 | |
| correction, I think the left hand is playing a repeated 3 note voicing, not a 4 note voicing: G D Ab | |
