It's Eb Major 7, not Eb7!
Check out Mark Levine and Dan Hearley Books on
Jazz Harmony and Voicings.

It's called "style"...reharmonizing....That's what "real" jazz pianists do
I've been playing jazz all over the United States for 50 years...please don't tell me what chords to play...if you don't like it don't play it...
I've taken it off here because if I have to have people such as yourself try and tell me how to play it's not worth it.....Perhaps you want to sign up for online lessons instead of reading books by educators.....Not trying to be offensive but you have to open your mind and EARS a little''

I really liked your voicing and chords despite what the other poster said

Maybe you should have spent 15 minutes!
Several wrong and /or incomplete voicings.
And if you change a chord, the Chord Symbol should be changed too.
