This is one of the most original big band rock/fusion charts ever written. The Buddy Rich Big Band recorded this as a Closer on the CD Buddy and Soul. Tenor solo and lots of exciting counterpoint. Red-hot ensemble passages prevail! Played on the Tonight Show many times when Buddy would be a guest. This is a terrific crowd-pleaser. 5-4-4-4.

Short, sweet and swingin'! Willie Maiden's arrangement of I'll Be Seeing You packs a whopper in a tiny box, making this chart perfect as an encoure closer for any set. As recorded by Maynard Ferguson and his orchestra on the album Dancing Sessions, Willie's arrangement makes great use of the trombone section as they carry the melody upfront before passing it around to the rest of the band. There is some space for a short trumpet solo before the band comes roaring in at the end to take it out with a punch! This chart should be in every band's library! 5-4-4-3 (opt. original instrumentation available as 4-4-2-3).

This chart was recorded by the Count Basie Orchestra on the CD I Told You So. This is a rip-roaring, swinging chart. It starts with trombones and rhythm setting the time with simple halfnote figures. The saxes and trumpets join in with a swinging, exciting series of lines, and away we go ! One of the great shout choruses of all time! Features solo space for tenor sax, trombone, piano and drums. A great closer for your programs. 5-5-4-4.

A totally hip funk tune with a swing sixteenth note feel that really lays right in the groove and every section gets a chance to shine. Your drummer will love the alternating measures of drum fills and ensemble kicks that build with intensity into the trumpet soli feature that in turn explodes into an open solo section for any soloists. Includes a guitar help sheet that includes tablature for licks and chord shape. A great closer that will make good bands sound even better! Really cooks!
