Rootless 3-Note Shells

The Shell II voicing of Cb7 stacks Bbb, Eb and Gb from the bottom up: the minor 7th, major 3rd and 5th of the chord. It leaves out the root, Cb, for the left hand or the bass player to take.

It's one of the Rootless 3-Note Shells voicings: three-note rootless voicings: the 3rd and 7th with one more tone, played over the root. The other for Cb7 is Shell I.
