- The Backdoor II-V-I is a typical Jazz chord progression and chord substitution, that takes another route to the tonic that sounds soulful and surprising. It’s used in a lot in Jazz, but it was a staple in the 70 ties and 80ties Soul and R&B. The 'Backdoor' progression is an important, soulful chord progression that you should know. It is chord IV- to bVII7 to the root chord I. You will learn about the Backdoor progression in this music theory lesson for guitar.

As clear and insightful as always. I really liked that you added and explained all the variations. That's a ton of stuff to get musical with.
Plus as general feedback: i enjoy you staying on topic throughout without any bla bla. Just excellent.
Thank you for sharing with us!
This is instantly one of my favourite videos of yours!
Great, lesson, thanks.
Thx for placing the back door progression, the Mario progression and that Bb11 Motown progression into one drawer. It’s easier for me to remember one thing than three! 🙏🏼
Great video!
I agree with @mikedwiles. This explains what we heard in the past, and what I will work on in the future. Superb video, and "crystal clear".
1:35 love the analogy hahaha made me crack my socks off
For my next album, I’m just gonna steal all these progressions 😅
Never heard this concept discussed before. Thank you so much for the insight. I've heard the approach used in songs as you mentioned. Definitely going to work on this.
This is gold!
What an amazing lessons....Thanks Rob
Recommended to every learner to watch his guitar lessons video as it has essence on it.
Don't forget that a dominant chord can resolve to a major or minor chord, and there is a minor backdoor dominant. (iv° - VII7/alt - IMaj6/Min6) Minor 2 5's ftw.
Goeie video 👌🏻
Thank you maestro, I learned more useful concepts from you then all the rest of the internet combined.... /humble_bow
Rob wins the interwebs....again!
8:04 Start here if you've been at it a long time. Because of the simple fact that there is an absolute mind-boggling number of ways to backdoor into the root tonic relative chord in a (Major) or (minor) progression.
😮
Can someone explain why the D chord is major in the C major scale shown in the video? The second in a major scale should be a minor chord, right?
That would be graphic error. The 2nd chord in a major key is always minor. It is part of the ii V I cadence.
In your first example you show Fm7-Bb7-CMaj7. That is not a ii-V-I. What's up with that? If the key is Eb, then it would be ii-V-I(alt), I see now. But the iv should be minor so we have some modal interchange taking place in that example? Borrowing from the parallel minor scale (Ebm)? Oh, shoot I see your explanation now. A different, perspective on the same move. Either way, it's understandable.
This is the backdoor ii V I
I figured this all out before watching the whole video. That means you are a great teacher, because you already prepared me to understand with previous lessons. Thank you from the bottom of my heart dear friend. You truly are a gifted teacher.
Thanks!!
