Not just any box, but the venerable Chatterbox jazz club! Monika originally recorded this hard-driving shuffle with her Acoustic Project. Now, the angular bebop lines are traded between trumpets and saxes. Solos for trombone, tenor sax, and guitar are provided in note-for-note transcriptions. However, there is room for any soloist before a sax soli further develops the melodic theme. Punchy and confident, this chart does not let up! Top trumpet note: G5 (4:00).

Recorded by Buddy Rich on his Roar Of '74 album, the success of this bright Latin/swing classic by Horace Silver depends heavily on the ability of the rhythm section to play the ostinato with confidence, precision and momentum. While the main solo work here goes to tenor and trumpet, the drummer punctuates the shout chorus with a series of short solos, then gets a wide-open chance to solo just before the final band chord. Rhythm section parts are partially notated with chords cued. Duration 3:30.

A driving rock groove, solid melody and zesty Latin overtones make this original a winner. The main solo section may be opened up as desired (written solos provided for all instruments), and at the coda the drummer kicks things up several notches by trading solos with the band. Plenty of ensemble writing throughout inspires confidence in young players.
