Many
have tried, but few have
been able to match the
incredible swing that
happens when you combine
Billy Byers' arranging
with the Count Basie
Orchestra. Originally
recorded on the Basie
album Frankly Basie:
Count Basie Plays the
Hits of Frank Sinatra,
Hey, Jealous Lover is a
medium-swing chart that
will excite your band and
audiences alike! Filled
with typical Basie-esque
piano solo fills (written
out), there is also room
for trumpet and tenor
saxophone improvisation.
The ensemble writing is
powerful and swinging;
nothing complex or
rhythmically awkward,
just a great melody with
hard swingin' horn lines
and tasty solo spots.
