Hi everyone.
There's a very common progression that abounds in Gospel and Swing music that I've been trying to figure out for years.
It's a standard buildup from I to I7 to the IV then *******. The minor fourth and a flat VI sound ok, but I know Im missing something.
I wish I had a sound excerpt to load up, but this is a work computer. It's the main theme in Weird Al's "this is the life" and also appears during the Second Chances song in the new Veggie Tales movie JONAH (which is why its in my head)
I know this is vague, but I hope someone is familiar, as its huge in Southern Gospel.
Thanks a bunch,
Chris
