It seems the importance of chord progressions are always overlooked in this forum. We all know 1,4,5 and 1 ,5,6,4 will always work, but nothing grabs my attention more then hearing a chord progression that is unique and creates a certian vibe. Does anybody have any to share?!?

Revelation...here's one written by the keyboardist of the Yellow Jackets (I forget his name) made famous by Robben Ford (Talk to Your Daughter cd). Gospel, Blues, Rock shuffle feel.

//G.../..../C.../B7sus.B7./F.C./G.C./G.../..FC//
/G.../D-7.G13./C.../B7sus.B7./F.C./G.D#o7./E-7.../
/C-7.../D-7.G13./C.../G.../A-7.C./G.../..FC//

Here's another, After You, a rock style ballad by Mike Stern

//G.F#./B-7.../E-7 D A G/..../G.F#./B-7.../E-7 D A-7 B-7/
Gmaj7.../F#-11.../F13...//
//G-7.../C-7 Bb F G-7/..../C-7.B-7./G-7.../C-7 B- A E/
/F#- A B-7 G/....//
