Hey Cori,
You seem a little frustrated. I don't have anything to add in terms of whether the chord Chris is looking for is an Aadd9 or not. I haven't had a chance to listen to the video. I'm trying to not go over my data limit in my phone.
But, you seem to have mis-read Chris' proposed chord shapes.

...the solution I came up with x07600 did sound right Cori and as I needed to go from A to A (addB) I could finger x07655 to x07600 very nicely.
You need to move you chord shape across a string.
X07655 (xAAC#EA) - X07600 (xAAC#BE). So if the Moodies are playing in standard tuning and it's an Aadd9 they're playing, then Chris' solution would appear to be appropriate as it's got the right notes in it. But... His ears are telling him something is amiss.
I have no idea what the answer is. I'm just trying to ensure you're both on the same page in terms of chord shapes.

No, it is cool...all part of the fun lol! I just confused myself as to what we were actually after, sorry. My bad... In the quest to find and identify fingerings for the Aaad9. I lost track of the fact that chord didn't sound correct to him. I get it, now. Sorry

I'll shut up now.
LAST AND FINAL EDIT I PROMISE...lol. Chris was going with X07600 E,A,C#,B,E (indeed the right notes for the Aadd9. But I thought I saw he was fretting X7600 E,G#,G,B,E a far more dissonant chord and A HUGE difference! I see where I went wrong. Doh! That's what you get for not reading the fine print. But is all good, do not fret Michele...pun intended.
