I was the bass player in a big band in college that played this. I used to piss off the reeds because they couldn't keep up with me :-P And as it starts in a 12 bar bass solo essentially, the bassist sets the tempo (and quite frankly, key if he's feeling malicious hehe). After practice like 2 or 3 sax players would be like "dude slow down our tongues are going to fall off."  Whatever man.

what, no white dudes in the band??

I'm in an eighth grade jazz band and playing this. I only just found this is stuff of college bands

@irgifted It is extremely complicated :D I chose this as a song to playalong this morning...i did all in double tongoe (my own technique, not traditional dt) and i could only play it once before my tongue decided to just have seizures in my mouth during the first 38 bars^^

After that, it gets kind of easy once you have the fingerings in your brain.

this is amazing. Every time I hear this song, I picture it as a prelude to a gang related war. Everybody is loading their guns in warehouses and what-not

This needs more views.

Respond to this video...  SMPotatoes: That's cool mate. It's just the drum solo. It's not as if it's a part of the music....

@rufeelinme1234 Conrad Herwig plays bone for this band, and he is very white.

@irgifted Its not the sax players that id worry about stabbing you after rehearsal haha, its the brass players in that soli just after the entrance (not a true soli, for Altos have it too).
