(Level 4) A transcription/adaptation of the TAKE SIX/Bobby McFerrin a cappella-funk hit from Quincy Jones' Back On The Block album. This tune is typical TAKE SIX-style with a written funk bass line, group vocals, and solo line with room for improvised stylization, all coming together on the chorus for a strong tutti sound. This arrangement includes a scat section with choir backg-up. Very fun and very hip!
