    Not uncommon in minor tunes but it's IVm > Im, e.g., Fm > Cm in Caravan.

    In a major tune, it would be IVm7 > IIIm7, as in A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square: Eb^7 > Cm7 > Gm7.

    There's a Cm in Caravan? I play it a C7b9 C#diminished vamp with an Fminor turnaround.

    In it's B section, 2 or 3 bars of the F7 chord are often replaced with Cm chords, and the same can be done with the Bb7 & Eb7 chords that follow the F7 (i.e., sub IIm7 for V7), but it was a bad example to make my point.

    I can’t imagine Wynton would have approved of this.
