Hey Joe. These chord categories look good. You're certainly correct about II, +V, VII, I, and +IV. I treat a 7th chord on Lyd Aug III like a conceptual modal genre, instead of vertical, and in fact, chart A lists Lyd Aug III as a I chord over III, and not as a 7th chord.P/AMT..LT...Most Ingoing Principal Scale on C7
II.........Bb...Bb Lyd
+V.......E.....E Lyd Aug
VII.......Db...Db Lyd Dim
I..........C.....C Lyd b7
+IV......F#...F#Lyd b7
III........G#..G# Lyd Aug
I think this is because of the focus on chord families. There aren't chord families on degrees IV, bVII, and bIII, and VI is primarily a minor chord family, so I think Aux Dim Blues VI is seen as a diminished scale coloration of minor.IV.........G....G Lyd Aux Dim
VI.........Eb...Eb Lyd Aux Dim Blues
bVII......D....D Lyd Aux Aug
bIII.......A....A Lyd Aux Dim Blues
After looking at Chart A he seems to have not included a few of those himself, namely my last 4 entries:
IV (G Lyd Aux Dim), VI (Eb Lyd Aux Dim Blues), bVII (D Lyd Aux Aug) and bIII (A Lyd Aux Dim Blues).
Why?
Horizontal scales are not considered chord producing scales, so I don't think there's really a Major V category.The other thing I noticed about my list is that there are 10 possible LTs on C7, the only 2 omissions being the two "avoid-notes" F and B.
But if I include the horizontally oriented scales in my list it will expand so as to include the F as an LT as well (but not the B).
P/AMT..LT...Most Ingoing Principal Scale on C7
V.........F.....F Major
Very good point.1. I realize that the right hand side of Chart A treats all PMG III chordmodes as being inversions of PMG I chordmodes, but he himself also lists III as an AMT for both II and +V chordmodes on the left hand side.
