Bad Dog!

Here's a great opener, closer, or anything in between! This swinging shuffle features cool lines, surprising harmonies, great rhythm section hooks, and much more. Notated rhythm section parts, reasonable brass ranges, and flexibly written or improvised solo space make this chart a winner. Additionally, it has a nice feel, a fine harmonic structure, and a dynamic shout chorus. Scored for standard big band, it's also playable with optional reduced or expanded instrumentation and includes a helpful guitar chord chart. No bad dogs here!
