Description

A medium shuffle with lots of energy, and ensemble passages for all the sections of the band. This was written for the Count Basie Band in the mid-50s and was one the most popular with a strong ending making the a great opener or closer to any program.

From the recording: Johnny Mandel Conducts the Music of Mandel, featuring the DIVA Jazz Orchestra.
