Since you're at it, you could help me!

I've been trying to solo over a progression:

Em-F#m7-Em-CM7-Em-Am-B7-Em

I think it is in E minor with some borrowed chords (F#m7,B7).

The only scale that seems to fit this is E minor. Maybe E harmonic minor too. But that's all. All other E modes sound like crap, or at least some of their tones crash awfully with the chord tones.

Any advice?
