Originally recorded as a soprano sax solo feature on the Sammy Sammy Nestico CD A Portrait Of Sammy, this arrangement allows two soloing options: playing it as a (1) soprano feature played by the 2nd Alto player, or as a (2) tenor feature played by the 1st Tenor player. Either way, the haunting solo leaves plenty of room for individual interpretation.

There are lots of swing charts based on blues changes. This one is in a class of its own. An attention-grabbing intro leads to the unison ensemble melody, followed by a few choruses where all sections trade off with the lead line. The open solo section can feature any instrument with suggested solos included. After a solo spot for drums things get even more interesting and fun! The dynamic level comes way down and your bass player gets to shine with some tasty written solo licks. The final ensemble chorus builds to a shout section that really - SHOUTS! A very impressive, effective and playable chart!
