Fantastic tenorsolos by Don and Olivier and great pianosolo by Frank Chastenier. The WDR Big Band is a super band, great special chorus by the sax section. I love it!

I have heard so many versions of the sax soli (and the son in general), but I don't think there has been one I haven't liked (or played through). I think this was the song that coaxed me into Lead Alto...(even though the tenor and bari parts are killer as well, and soprano is cool if you get creative).

@Blijdenstein For years they have been THE BEST ( and I have been adoring Basie since 1960). They are the most foreward looking musican organisation
