i think the cb is just a c. for a D minor chord, you lower the 7th of D a half step which is c# >> c. all i know about minors is lower the 3rd, and 7th a half step to make a minor triad. but also, a cb is a b because there is only a half step between b and c. and following your forumula, a whole step up from Bb is c. hope this helps.

???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

All that mumbo-jumbo about 7th's & stuff is making me dizzy.

I just play guitar (pretty good I might add)

But all that theory stuff would make me go nuts....

Kudo's to anyone who knows it!!
