The Guide Tones I voicing of Cm(maj7) stacks Eb and B from the bottom up: the minor 3rd and major 7th of the chord. It leaves out the root, C, for the left hand or the bass player to take.

It's one of the Guide Tones voicings: just the 3rd and 7th, the notes that define each chord, played over the root. The other for Cm(maj7) is Guide Tones II.
