Favorite blues voicings (piano)?
I ask about blues voicing in particular because they tend to be different. Sometimes the IV ii V I turnaround emphasizes the tonality of the I more than in other contexts, where it feels like more of a full-blown modulation to the ii if you get what I mean.
But I'm also looking for real sharp/piercing voicing for the I7 and VI7. Not necessarily terribly dissonant, but something you can really stab with. Got any favorites?

I like to sometime use altered dominant voicings with the alterations taken from the blues scale:
III7b5#9 (or any 7alt) VI7#5#9 (or any 7alt) II7#5b9 (or #9) V7#5#9 |
