Luck Be a Lady
Among the many arrangements that have been frequently requested by singers and enthusiasts, the music written for Frank Sinatra and the Count Basie Orchestra is high on the list. This original version was arranged by Billy May and later adapted by Quincy Jones. The primary difference is that the Jones version eliminated the string parts. Beginning with the verse slowly and freely stated, it blasts into a swing style at around 200 bpm. The only instrumental solo is alto saxophone filling behind the vocalist in the first chorus. With the ensemble wailing at its best, this is a must-have! Highly recommended!
