Probably one of my favorites in the series. Aaron decided to treat this as a Tonight Show Band/Count Basie tune. Up-tempo swing, this chart really is smokin’, sounds incredible, but is actually not as hard to play as it might sound. The rhythms all fall in the pocket and it works great. This will be a standard arrangement for years to come. Grade 3
