The Barry Harris' 6th Diminished Scale
The Barry Harris harmony approach is a way of thinking about jazz chords and melodies based on specific 8-note scales.
Instead of using the usual 7-note scales, 8-note scales provide a way for you to discover new and exciting chord voicings. You can use these to unlock cool scale secrets that you can use to build any chord in any key.
Try to harmonize that magical scale that Barry Harris says everybody must know!

Three-Note Voicings
It is not that uncommon, among jazz musicians, to use three-note chords that can work as more complex chords structures.
Three-notes chords often are more handy and essential and, if we have the ability to obtain quickly their inversions, we can obtain a lot of voicings that can work as seventh chords.
In the picture below we have the notes C D Ab that can work as: Amin (maj7), Fm6, E7 (b13), Bb7 (9).
Try yourself the sound ! 😉

Ooooh careful, playing this scale descending was considered the Devil's scale back in the day , a big no no 😆😈🤘 amazing how just 1 interval change from a Major scale can sound very different . Some call it the Jazz scale I think . If you start from the 7th Ascending it's Diminished , STone-Tone-STone-Tone up to the 4th . Then WholeTone from the 3rd . That Minor3rd is Lovely 😆👍

Personally, I use this knowledge for triad pair improvisation. B altered: play A dim B dim, or C minor D minor, or Fmaj G maj. Other combinations eg with Eb aug are also possible of course, but using 2 neighbouring triads of the same quality saves thinking while playing.

Minor Seventh Chord Substitution
In many situations, where we have a bass player, we can avoid to play the root and substitute it with the ninth.
If you apply this process to all the inversions of a minor seventh chord you will come up with the inversions of a major seventh chord, as you can see on the diagrams.
So that, any major seventh chord and its inversions can work as substitution of a minor seventh chord. (e.g. Cm7 -> Ebmaj7)
