✅ ABOUT THIS LESSON

Discover the essential minor soul chord secrets every guitarist needs to know! In this lesson, I’ll show you how to move beyond basic minor 7 chords and unlock richer sounds with minor 9, minor 6, minor 69, and more—the exact chords used in Soul, Funk, Motown, Blues, Jazz and even Rock. We’ll break down easy shapes, explore how to add tension and color, and apply them to a one-chord groove inspired by Marvin Gaye’s “Inner City Blues” so you can hear these chords in action. Perfect for late-beginner and intermediate guitarists, this video will help you transform your rhythm playing, groove with confidence, and add the pro-level soul, funk, and jazz flavors that make your guitar parts come alive.
