Bill, these videos are really excellent. Thanks for putting them out–I will definitely be steering my students to them.

Err, this is great stuff. I totally get it. The only thing is no mention of the C- chord (in this progression the ii-7), is it sub for a maj as the vi-7 was, so C7 sub would be E-7b5 or Eo if you b the ninth (db) or f#7 the tritone sub. Unless this chord is not usually substituted on this progression?

correction..the Eo chord has a Dbb ..double flat
