Ebm3GbM3Bb2C

Eb Minor 6, written Ebm6, is built from Eb, Gb, Bb and C: the root, minor 3rd, 5th and 6th.

Its 3rd and 6th, Gb and C, are its guide tones: they say what kind of chord it is, so voicings are built around them and the root is often left to the bass.

In the progressions here, Ebm6 is the i6 of the Minor ii-V-I Progression in Eb and the iv6 of the Minor Plagal Cadence in Bb.
