The first half of the melody is stated by the sax section, followed by the full ensemble in the second half, and leads to a post-bop style soli. Following the second soloist, a shout chorus builds momentum into an open drum solo. The arrangement closes with a big finale. Features T. Sax 1, A. Sax 1, and drums. Recorded by UNC Lab I, directed by Dana Landry. Key of Eb.
