A swinging, happy toe-tapper in the Basie tradition that just won't quit; this is a great concert or contest selection for mid-level bands. The (written) piano solo starts things out, followed by one (or all) of the saxes introducing the melody. Then the brass join in and the full ensemble plays up to a basic 12 bar blues solo section for any instrument. The ensemble sections, solis and dynamics that follow provide lots of contrast and excitement. There's even more than one shout chorus. Just when you think it's over, it keeps on goin'. A guaranteed winner!

A great new chart of Freddie Hubbards’ great Blues For Miles that really cooks! Freddie describes this tune as Hip Hop Funk on the original CD also entitled Blues for Miles.

Solos follow for the soloists of your choice on slightly altered Bb blues changes and then an exciting rock flavored shout chorus takes us back to the head. Includes an optional flute part. An outstanding choice for almost any performance opportunity that your students will really enjoy playing.

Let the rhythm section lay down an earthy groove in half-time funk. The horns ride along with a bluesy melody that builds to a great stop-time. Modest ranges all around with reduced instrumentation (3 Saxes, 2 Trumpets, 1 Bone) keep it within reach of smaller groups, while extra parts for Flute, Clarinet, Horn, Baritone T.C., and Tuba add flexibility. Solo transcriptions are provided that match the recording, along with easier versions of those solos to give younger players a starting point. A hip, fun, and memorable chart. (Top Trumpet Note: D5).

Starts out as a very effective ballad that features a short written trumpet solo and then segues into a light rock section featuring another short solo, this time by the Tenor Sax. Then it's back to the ballad feel for the very beautiful ending. Ranges are mod est and the rewards are great with this quality chart that will make a wonderful concert or contest num ber for a young developing stage band.
