Chord sequence for Wayne Shorter's Dance Cadaverous. I have not been able to find any source which publishes the entire sequence for this tune. There are two examples in Mark Levine's "The Jazz Theory Book" which give large fragments of this progression. I have tried to transcribe the chords that were missing from Levine's transcription. I have made a good faith effort to figure out these linking chords, but there is a very good chance that I've made errors. I would appreciate if someone with better ears than I could check this sequence for correctness.
