Way back in the day, I picked up Jamey Aebersold ear training cassettes (I said way back) and the cassettes focused on interval recognition; M2, m6 etc and chord quality; major, minor, diminished etc, and chord relationships. Very helpful. Back then Aebersold was about the only show in town.
I imagine that or similar content is readily available today from a number of sources including free sources. And I imagine Aebersold is still doing it.
The play alongs were useful too. Try jamming with an extended set of ii-Vs ascending or descending in thirds or in random patterns. It'll sharpen your saw for sure. I probably need to go back to that woodshed myself.
