The black and white sax player looks like my ex-next-door-neighbour. He was black and white too.
I love a 9th chord more than lemon meringue. Which is saying something. Bb9 is my favourite of all.

The 9th is the Mother of Funk. I'm more of an F#m7 kinda guy. What's that? Junk? Spunk? Crunk? Gunk? Chunk?

hmmmm-
what about a E7 X9(b10) like g#.d.g over a E octave on the piano, dont know what you guitar guru's do with it, but it sounded pretty funky when playing in group
the jimi h. chord..... foxy lady//purple haze thing.....would that count great grooving chord too

By jimi hendrix chord you mean a 7#9 ? That's certainly is a groovey funky chord.
E G# D G
13ths are cool too.

Andy, yes that should have read # 9 and also yes those13ths and flat 13ths are cool, also depends on the various voicings that can be used and with the tritone passing note in the bass on the piano or bass guitar changes those chords from one into another chord by virtue of the movement of the bass line. I do that in my jazzed out version in the intro of LIGHT MY FIRE where I go from 7/#9 to 7 /13th chords and do a bass line walk down on a tritone ie : E-Bb, A to Eb, D to Ab and so on...make sense to anybody here...maybe a few who are seriously into the jazz genre
So also cool are fraction chords (used to be called poly chords) in the jazz genre. like doing. slash chords ie dm7 over a G //etc Fm7 over a Bb and so on blah blah,, and who really cares

Bryon,
I think you've hit the essense of the situation....who cares?
If it works for you, if it works in your song, then it's the right chord...I don't care what the inversion is, whether it's augmented, diminished, demented....whatever!
Does it work!
Oh yeah...almost forgot.
I LOVE 9th chords!

You know the Enchanted Castle--it doth stand
upon a rock, or the border of a lake,
nested in trees, which all do seem to shake
from some old magic-like Urganda's sword...
The doors all look as if they oped themselves,
the windows as if latched by fays and elves,
and from them comes a silver flash of light,
as from the westward of a summer's night...
--John Keats...
