[jazz_guitar] Andy LaVerne misprint?

[guit...@comcast.net]

I picked up LaVerne's Chord Substitutions book several years ago when it was part of a bunch I bought when Border's had their teachers reward sale (30% off-keep an eye out for it if you are a teacher). It came up on the list a few days ago, so I pulled it out. On page 6, dealing with tritone subs, there is a chord that is identified as a G7b9 and written (from low to high) G-F-B-E-Ab. Is this just a misprint, or is there a reason for the E in place of a D that escapes me?

Probably a typo; could either be they meant G13b9, or they
misspelled the chord. That stuff happens all the time...

That's good, I didn't think my theory was that rusty that I'd forget a 7th chord! The 13th makes no sense in the context of the lesson that is specifically about subbing for a dominant 7th chord.
Thanks,
