(Level 3) This medium tempo shuffle swings hard! Four part throughout with solo opportunities for piano and/or vocalist. The vocal solos are oriented toward improvisation melodically and lyrically, while the choir sings the head, in the tradition of call and response. Very fun chart. Can be heard on Take Me Back, by Andre Crouch and the Disciples. SATB with rhythm section.
