Am-E-G would have been ii-V-I, the everpresent faux-jazz progression (also common in actual jazz of a certain vintage).
- tunesmith 4y agoThat would be Am-D-G. This one is probably more like A major with a flat seven since G major has two tones in common with the ii.
- thanatropism 4y agoD-oh. You're right.
- ghostpepper 4y agoModern jazz doesn't use ii-V-I?
- ksherlock 4y agoNo sweat. G is really just another way to say Bm♭6, so G-E-A is a ii-V-I. Or if you'd prefer, E is just another way to say D13 so E-G-A is a backdoor (v-♭VII-I) ii-V-I
