Example6 Long II-V-I into turnaround in Bb

-

EFor the initial short minor II-V- I Green ignores the Dm7b5, instead playing around G7b9, then resolves to Cm7 over the Cm7 chord, briefly implying G7 on beat 2. He stays around Cm7 for the first two beats over F7 before landing on the root on beat 3, then anticipate­s the resolution to Bb landing on the maj 3rd (D) on beat 4. Over the turnaround he uses a great idea, starting with root notes on the Bb, outlining G major, then playing the same idea up a whole step - roots on the Cm7 and an A triad over the F7 before resolving to the maj 3rd (D) on the final Bb chord.
