BTW,someone mentioned Bill Potts,so I dug out an LP on the VIK label (VIK LX-1114) recorded May 10,1957 by The Freddy Merkle Group "JAZZ UNDER THE DOME" featuring original comps/arrngmnts of Bill Potts. Side 1,track 4 is titled "PERNOD 806" & is the same tune/arrngmnt Zoot is playing here in this film. The lineup on the LP is Freddy Merkle (d), Bill Potts (p), Al Seilbert (t.s.), Earl Swope (tbn) & John Beal (b). The cut was described as "a preacher in a hurry", but not nearly as fast as this.

TheJazzzCritic approves of this filmclip. Perfect in every way. Lots of swing & great inprov. Zoot is at the top of his game. Bunker & Berghofer are solid & tight. Bunker & Zoot compliment each other when they trade eights. Kellaway does his thing... notice how he breaks away from his usual "All In The Family" stride he is so known for. All four cats deserved much more props than they were ever given. Perfect combo. Hard act to follow.

by the way... the musical composition "You n Me" is not written by Bill Potts,
it was composed by Sammy Nestico ASCAP 1969

This is the chord changes to
Cannonball Adderley "Things Are Getting Better"
from the Riverside album with Milt Jackson...

@OttoLink10 Thanks for commenting on this - I've had this video downloaded onto my ipod cuz its awesome and Im glad to know it actually has a name! I was actually about to try and decipher the changes when I read your comment. So then I found the record online"You'n'me" by the Al Cohn - Zoot Sims Quartet, like you said it was written by Bill Potts. Then I went ahead and tried the changes and learned the bass line. Its just a rhythm changes in E flat with the A section chords twice as long! Thx!
