Spice up your repertoire with hip-hop! The initial riff-based melody is augmented with pyramid figures from the rest of the ensemble. The coiled energy that is built up in this first section of the tune is released into the kinetic motion of the B section. This leads to an extended tenor sax solo that will really allow your soloist to stretch out. A stop time low brass feature follows, which leads back into the head of the tune, where the ensemble can ride it out to the end.

Recorded in 1998 by the Monday Night Big Band on their Thanks To Thad album, this is Part 1 of Thad's larger Return Journey Suite. Solo requirements are limited to an optional repeat that may (or may not) be taken for a piano solo. This means that this outing relies on solid section and ensemble work throughout. A full brass pyramid that builds from the bottom up before the final chord is a special highlight. Duration 3:30.

This happy, joyous medium-tempo gospel swing with a truly sunny disposition takes the listener in immediately and just does not let go! An animated full-ensemble introduction leads the way to the sun-beamy, chirrupy melody, at first presented by trumpet and alto over a stop-time rhythm section. The entire sax section takes the melody next, while the brass offer uplifting commentary by way of stop-time chords. Plunger-muted trumpet is featured at the solo section, with inspiring backgrounds from the ensemble; this section may be repeated as desired to feature additional solos. Some deft linear writing follows the solo section, providing exciting dialog throughout the ensemble before leading up to an intriguing and effective pyramid that leaps forward into the stirring shout chorus. A clever tag alights on the ending plagal cadence, offering a place for the plunger-muted Trumpet to shine above the final chord. Gather ‘Round is sure to bring a smile, and destined to be a mainstay!

In this beautiful showcase for alto saxophone, the overall performance can be loose but must convey great warmth. Brass section volume during background passages should be kept to a minimum. The pyramids in the introduction and at measure 37 will need to be more pronounced.
