Thanks Mario, you and I are alike in this regard, yet something tells me there is some (hidden?) value in the 1-4-5 method.


There is value in knowing 1-4-5. If someone says "1-4-5 in the key of C and if you know a little theory or if you have a lot of experience you know that the chords will be C-F-G with the 5 usually G7.

Like previously mention if someone says "lets do a 12 bar blues in C" you will know that the chords will be 1-4-5 or again C-F-G7.

It's called the Heineken Maneuver.
