My jazz band director decided to hand us this piece a couple days before our performance on tuesday...I'm glad someone posted this, and you can actually hear the keyboard :) Thanks!

I just love this song so much! If you ever get any recordings (audio or video) of your band playing this please let me know cause I would love to hear! Someday I would love to create my own arrangement of the song and make a video for my channel.

@cjhoylemusic I don't have any recordings yet, but this and American Patrol are sort of our signature songs now, so I'm sure I will someday...I was new to the band, so I didn't quite know this yet haha.

Like bulletman100, I played this song with my school's jazz band in the late 70s. I got to do the sax solos :D

Thanks!

Thank-you for posting this video ... Great song; it brings back a lot of memories. Great Trombone Section ... the Gentleman on the right has great posture!

Sounds good!

This is a great song, I remember it well from my high school jazz experience.

Would you be able to tell me the composer/arranger?

Thanks.

It is by Jay Chattaway : )

It's a fun song to play! It would have been nice if we actually played it well! : P
