A few weeks back I did an 80s chord voicing tutorial and it was useful to a number of you. A couple of people sparked the idea of doing a different decade, so here's a 70s one. This is the kind of 10cc, Supertramp, ELO, Bee Gees, Elton John kind of vibe.

Timings:
Playing through: 00:00
Breaking down: 01:23
Putting into an arrangement: 11:46

As mentioned in the video, here's some examples of that 11th chord thing that reeks of the 70s!

Bee Gees: How deep is your love
Big dom 11 swell at 16 seconds

Ace: How Long
First Wurlitzer chords from 17 seconds

Player: Baby come back
Again, it’s the Wurlitzer chords in the intro

10cc: I’m not in love
Right at the start you get it
