Originally the chord should be

Cdim (which fits with the melody)
but nowadays everybody plays
C-6, which opens up more
possibilities during the solos.

Stochelo arrives early both on the C-6 and on the After outlining all the previous chords with
G. Anticipating chords in solos is common arpeggio like phrases Stochelo chooses
practice and will - in moderation - make you sound to play a simple melodic idea on the Bbdim
sophisticated.

Stochelo is thinking A7 here - Stochelo again skips the Bbdim and plays a long
which is closely related to phrase in G.
C#half dim - and plays his
usual dim arpeggio

C# dim arpeggio followed by a C- arpeggio Again ignoring the Bb dim. It is interesting to notice
though that he lands on the f# on beat 1 of bar 52 (also
in bar 32). On dim chords the most harmonic pleasing
note to play in your solo is the suggested root (a major 3rd
below the true root of the dim chord) which is in fact a f#!

Here Stochelo substitues the Bbdim with a G#dim which is

a completely different dim chord. It still works because both
dim chords wflow naturally into the A-7 chord.

Stochelo is completely ignoring the chords and substitutes Finally Stochelo chooses to play over the
his own playing two augmented triads, first on C#7 and Bb dim with virtuosic arpeggios!
then on F#7. It still sounds good because they lead naturally
into the G chord in bar 67 and because it also a descending
pattern just like the original chords.s
