I love these kinds of chords, too. You mentioned Fsus2 being one of your favorites. Take a listen to Third Day's, "My Hope is You". They get a lot of mileage out of C, F, and Am by using that Fsus2 in there; one of my favorite progressions! Here's a short part of a progression in E that I came up with using these types of chords that I hope you'll like: 0.7.9.9.0.0 (E5) 0.7.9.8.0.0 (Emaj7) 0.10.12.11.0.0 (Em9) x.0.11.9.0.0 (Aadd9) Hi Klaus -

For example the first chord x02020 = is (x A E G C# E). The G is the not in the key of A. All the chords carry this open G with the x05050 and X09080 adding another G. I understand the use of the b7 when playing chords in the key; for example the V7. My question, what the principal of playing the b7th of the KEY instead of the 7th. Love these chords.

Love these chords.
