I created a little exercise for myself that consisted of playing the chord changes to the A section of Darn That Dream with a half step in every single voicing. Every last one! No exceptions. Plus, the melody on top of most. The fruits of this exercise are now presented here on COTW. The first chord is a voicing for Gmaj7 with the half step between the Ma7 and root.
