The quintessential Flag-Waver (as recorded on the 1959 album The Jazz Soul of Porgy and Bess, featuring the Bill Potts Big Band), this one is a real romp through a happy tune and a brilliant chart, arranged to feature everyone in the band. Some only have 4 bars, others have more blowing space, but everyone gets their chance in the spotlight. Great fun, great music and a great chart! 5-5-5-4.
