So what does one do with a minor 3rd?? I guess if you’re smart… you earn a buck.

Goodness… look at how that silly C to A chord movement from the 70’s, 80’s, etc has generated income.

Let’s look at some of the artists who used the A to C, & C to A (minor 3rd) movement in recent history:

AC/DC - Kicked In The Teeth Again
Nugent - Cat Scratch Fever
REO Speedwagon - Ridin’ The Storm Out
Pat Travers - Snortin’ Whisky
Van Halen - Somebody Get Me A Doctor
Van Halen - Mean Streets
Van Halen - Hot For Teacher
(Get the idea?.. Oh, yes.. I’m a fan of Edward and his minor 3rd interpretations.)
Black Sabbath - The Mob Rules
ZZ Top - Heard It On The X
Guns & Roses - Night Train
Motley Crue - Kickstart My Heart

Throw a D one top and who rears their head?
AC/DC - Whole Lotta Rosie
Journey - Lovin’, Touchin’, Squeezin’

Can you suggest any others?
