Instrumental with demo to follow, picked a few chords from Seals and Croft book that had a different fingering than I normally use. I liked the voicings and this progression came out a couple hours later.

I can't be entirely certain of the voicings, except where frets are indicated, but I picked up the acoustic and played this and enjoyed the laid back yet complex feel it has going. Lots of tones carry through while colors shift around underneath. I particularly like the parallel between the resolution in the
E7sus4->E7
and
Bm7-> Am7
where the tension gets stretched out by moving to E9 in passing
I've been looking to add more harmonic complexity to my progressions and this would probably be good for me to look into further. Your progression feels very impressionistic to me, catching the play of light and atmosphere.
