Harry James, one of the leading trumpeters of the Swing era, was a huge fan of the sound and style of the 1950s Count Basie Orchestra. He hired several of Basie's arrangers to write arrangements for him in the early 1960s, including Neal Hefti, Ernie Wilkins, and Thad Jones. Some of these charts were recently discovered in Harry James' archives, including several contributions by Thad Jones. These charts beautifully illustrate how Thad had such a unique talent for writing within the established style of others' bands, while still managing to instill his own musicality in each piece. This arrangement of the Thad Jones original composition Don't Min-Us is a slow swing minor blues at around 120 bpm, and features a solo section for tenor saxophone. The arrangement closes out with an exciting shout chorus.
