Chords and substitutions:
Eb: x 6 5 3 4 3
Cm7: x 3 5 3 4 3 or x x 1 3 1 3
Fm7: 1 3 1 1 4 1
Bb9 x 1 0 1 1 1 or x 3 3 3 3 4
G7+5 x x 1 0 0 1 (1) G7+5 sounds awkward in a solo. I substitute G7.
It's not technically correct. I'm not a purist.

Ab 4 6 6 5 4 4
Abm 4 6 6 4 4 4

Gb7 2 4 2 3 2 2
Edim x x 2 3 2 3
F7 1 3 1 2 1 1 (2) This should be a 9th, but the voice holds the 9th.
Play F7 for accompaniment or solo.
Bb7 x 1 3 1 3 1 (3) This is not in the original. But in a solo it
resolves better than the F7.
G7 3 5 3 4 3 3
Cm x 3 5 3 4 3
Ab7 4 6 4 5 4 4
C7 8 10 8 9 8 8 or x 3 5 3 5 3
