I have to say this is one of the best explanations of chord progressions I've ever come across. I spent years of guitar playing without realizing exactly how they worked.
As an aside, I always thought of Sweet Home Alabama as being in G, yet the solos have many notes outside of both G and D!
Thank you! I hear Sweet Home Alabama as being in D but apparently Lynyrd Skynyrd ends it on G in their shows. Either way, the solos are mostly blues, which doesn't exist within the Western European major-minor key system at all.

I hear it as in D because of the melody and metric placement of chords
