Interesting, thanks. I'm not great with chord-scale theory, but what's the relationship between the A+ and the F#mM7? I think I'd been hearing it as a rootless mM7, but if I'm thinking clearly without a fretboard in front of me, F# isn't in the A whole tone collection.

Sorry, by the way, to the OP for turning this into a theory geek-out. Another thing about jazz is that tends to happen...
