Dirty or Spiritual?

Its been a while since my last post, but here’s a nice progression taken from a gospel/blues standard. Variations are many. Gives a great opportunity to experiment w/ chord embellishments and substitutions to make it as dirty or spiritual as you are. Sub a Domionant 7 for the iii and gets real dirty. Sub the vi & iii w/ Minor 7ths and it gets jazzy. I think you got the point. Now go get some!
