Hip and cool don't have to take a lot of rehearsal time and hard work... at least not with this chart. It's a bright swinger on straight-ahead blues changes and is totally practical for developing groups. The ranges are conservative and the rhythms are basic, but you would never know it from the big and full sound. An open solo section for any instrument on very basic chord changes, plus lots of hard-driving ensemble writing make this one a true winner. What's not to like?
