31.23Now add ii–V preparation

Some passages use:

ii → V → I

ii → V → I

into those centers.

For B:

C♯m7 → F♯7 → Bmaj7

C♯m7 → F♯7 → Bmaj7

For E♭:

Fm7 → B♭7 → E♭maj7

Fm7 → B♭7 → E♭maj7

For G:

Am7 → D7 → Gmaj7

Am7 → D7 → Gmaj7

These are ordinary ii–V–I packets.

Nothing exotic individually.
