Thank you, Frank, not the Man, just an old picker.

Another reason why the flat six has a special sound is because it's a sharp five. It sort of "suspends" (not to be confused with a suspension) the listener, waiting for it to drop to the five, much in the way you hear it in melodic/harmonic minor melodies...the spanish/arabian influence.

All the Best,
Mike
