Sheryl Bailey strips those familiar shell voicings down even further into rootless voicings, just the third and seventh left once the root is gone. Horn players love them because they leave so much open space, and they double as a roadmap for soloing melodically since those two notes are really the changes themselves. Weave them into your solos and listeners will always know exactly where you are in the song form.
