All I can come up with is this: B C for a Cmaj7 chord, F E for G7, G Ab for G7alt... actually, there are many ways it could be used over an altered chord, right?

 

Dammit, I need ideas for how to use this interval. Give them to me please!

Like G Ab then A Bb and then B C... Hey! Then you're up at the Cmaj7 again if you want to :)

Nice one. Thanks!

Let's move that idea downward a maj 2nd... F E works fine over a Dm7 chord. Then you have this sequence: E F over the Dm7 chord, G Ab and A Bb over the G7 and then up to B C for the Cmaj7 chord. Need to try that out when I get home.

Ah! But I don't have to get home to hear it. I have BAIB at work. It sounds a bit harsh but clears up nicely. This is just a very basic idea, no rhythm to speak of.

Eh... both? :)

Probably more for soloing since this isa little tricky voicing to play, so I won't be doing it while singing for at least another three years. Maybe while comping someone else soloing.

Here are two more ideas (with a little rhythm added to them this time :) ). They are very smooth, no altered notes.
