If you choose to be in denial of this simple fact, you can concoct parallels and relatives to 'borrow' just about any chord from, if it makes you happy! F#7 is a simple tritone substitution for C7 of course. Now try me on a hard one :-) | |

But I still have a doubt, E7 is the dominant of the parallel key of Am, and the Bb chord is in the parallel key of C. So... are we adding chords from both, the parallel key of the actual key, and the parallel key of the relative key? Thanks again! | |
