Are you able to tell by ear whether a keyboardist is including the root in their voicings?
I wonder how hard it is to learn exactly what a keyboard player is playing, I hear songs sometimes and I just wonder how the key player has voiced the chords, whether its rootless or not, because I guess a key player playing a Em over a bass players C note is just percieved as a Cmaj7 chord, I wonder if anyone can listen to a song though and hear "the song plays a Dm9 but the guy on rhodes is playing a Fmaj7" I think I really need to start ear training #audio #music
