Quotes by Joseph Alexander (?)

“We can also flatten the 5th of the chord. The structure 1 3 b5 is not very common in music although it does sometimes occur in jazz. However, the structure 1 b3 b5 occurs frequently. It is called a diminished or occasionally a minor b5 chord.”
― Joseph Alexander, Guitar Chords in Context: The Practical Guide to Chord Theory and Application

“To create a major 7th chord we simply extend the ‘1 3 5’ formula by an extra note so it becomes ‘1 3 5 7’.”
― Joseph Alexander, Guitar Chords in Context: The Practical Guide to Chord Theory and Application

“As the major 7th’s chord formula is 1 3 5 7, you might expect that the minor 7th’s formula would be 1 b3 5 7. This, however, is not the case. To create a minor 7 chord we add a b7 to a minor triad. The formula is 1 b3 5 b7.”
