If all you've learned is classical theory, then this chord makes no sense. It contains both the major and minor 3rd, which used to be a big no-no. However, it's contains the absolute essence of rock and blues music - the clashing between two thirds. This lesson explores how the b3 interacts with major chords, and vice versa. Along the way you should gain some knowledge on how to use the Jimi Hendrix chord (7#9) and other ways to compose with "mixed thirds".
