  Does anyone have an example of a jazz tune constructed upon a series of diminished 7 chords?


  Did the very early jazz musicians use diminished 7 chords in their play?


  I do remember reading that Bunk Johnson and George Lewis had difference of opinion
  about diminished chords.  Bunk for, George opposed.
