Freddie Green on Rhythmn guitar. The BEST!!!!!!!! This, along with "Cute," also written and arranged by Neal, became two of Count's best-selling recordings, as well as, the most requested by audiences around the world.

Thanks to the Count and Neal Hefti. You can always whistle a great tune, they say. Well, this is a tune that would get the whole world whistling. A timeless moment in jazz.
