Jazz chord progressions

Every Jazz progression Adam posts, with the chord shapes, the strum, the groove and what the changes are doing. Open any of them for the shapes and the feel. No account, nothing to sign in to.

  1. Em7b5 · A7 · Dm6 · Dm6

    iiø7 · V7 · i6 in D · 112 bpm

    The dark sentence — half-diminished in, dominant through, minor six home.

  2. Em7 · A7 · Dmaj7 · Dmaj7

    ii7 · V7 · Imaj7 in D · 132 bpm

    Jazz’s whole sentence structure, in one line. Loop it in every key.

  3. Dmaj7 · Bm7 · Em7 · A7

    Imaj7 · vi7 · ii7 · V7 in D · 120 bpm

    A turnaround. Four chords that lean on each other and hand you back to the start, which is why you hear it at the end of so many jazz tunes.
