What does it mean when a Guitar/Piano chord has a number after it? e.g A2 D5 (i don't mean Aadd5, i know that)?

Q. e.g A2 D5 (i don't mean Aadd5, i know about that)

A. Hmm. Interesting question.

Well, you could be referring to a single note, and the octave. C4 is middle C, for example. If not, then you may have incorrectly voiced the question. Most chords use the 1st, 3rd and 5th degrees of the scale, so "A5" or "add5" don't exist. But if it's "C7" that means add the 7th degree, "D9" means the 7th and the 9th, etc. etc.

The number after the chord tells you which degree of the scale to add to the chord. However, if it is a number and only a number, it means add that note and the one(s) before it. So D11 means add the 7th, the 9th and the 11th.

I've probably got this all wrong, but hopefully I've helped.

Original Question

Easy Blues/Jazz etc Songs to cover?
Q. Any intermediate Jazz, Blues, Roots or any of that direction of genre of pieces/songs that would be good for an intermediate band to cover?

Theres one guitar, one bass guitar, one drummer (or percussionist), piano, and some vocals.
At least the guitars and percussionist have to be used in the song.

Any help is appreciated thanks

A. you have the perfect combo for the blues, if you can get a organ sound out of your keys.Piano is fine.What do you mean by Intermiadiate, Either you can play or you can,t. period. I have played in bands for thirty years.You pick material you can play together..Both styles of music are more about soul and improv. But try Willie Dixon, I can,t quit you baby.Simple Blues tune, simple chords, Piano. One of you are going to have to have a decent voice to pull this off. But as in all music its about doing your own version of the song.Listen to this song on You tube.If you are good ya,ll should only have to listen to it a couple of times and have it down.Its A three chord song typical of the genre.the chords are C9, GM7.D9,that is if you are tuned standard 440.I play by ear as did 90% of the players back in the day.sheet for this is probly impossible to find. Tabs same way.Listen to the song this is the way it was done. Also Led Zepplin did a version of it also.Plus a slew of other musicians at the time. once you hit this site just type in blues,/or jazz you will find a ton of music to play. But you are going to have to research music to find what you want. I pull songs off this site weekly.And play it on the weekends.Usually just tell the bass player and drummer the song. they learns it off the site. as I do and we play it.
