This Gordon Goodwin original is a slow, Basie-style blues number that is dedicated and inspired by the great Sammy Nestico. This chart starts out slow, but before you know it, you're building your way toward a stomping Basie shout chorus. Of course, you can open this one up for any of your soloists, and there is plenty of juicy ensemble work to display your band's tightness and ability to swing. As recorded by The Big Phat Band on XXL. Altos 1 and 2 double on flutes and the trumpet 1 goes to high G (optional Ab).
