Between part C and D, Mingus has the number move from FMAJ to AbMAJ (quite a remote key: + 3b). He substitutes BbMAJ7 which isn't even played by Bb7#11 (borrowed from melodic minor) and then changes the quality to m7 (the third of Bb7#11 is lowered and the sharp fourth is raised) so Bb7#11 is a kind of "altered" (I don't mean an X7alt. chord by that here) chord leading to Bbm7. Then of course Eb7 and finally Ab MAJ7. I played it on the guitar and the short lapse into F mel is just so nicely dissonant (it is even played twice). | |
