Composer	Goodman, Benny; Razaf, Andy; Sampson, Edgar; Webb, Chick
Arranger	Holman, Bill
Difficulty level	4
Additional info/contents	style: Swing grade: Advanced weight: 1 lb. If there is one chart which seems to capture the essence of Stan's mid-fifties bands, this is the one! The chart swings like mad from downbeat to the end. This is one of Holman's best early charts, and he turned everyone on their ear with it. Great ensemble sections, and great solo spaces for guitar (or piano), bass, trumpet and tenor saxophone. This is very sophisticated music on maybe the best album the Kenton Band ever did. Recorded on the Contemporary Concepts album (This music is also available from Mosaic Records in their Russo/Holman CD set.) 5-5-5-4
