If you want a chart that swings, this is it! This incredible arrangement by Quincy Jones of "Walk, Don't Run" was recorded by the great Count Basie Orchestra on their album Hits of the 50's & 60's - This Time By Basie. It is set as a medium-up swing and has amazing ensemble writing with very playable rhythms and ranges. There is solo space for tenor saxophone and piano (piano solo is written out). The arrangement culminates in a smokin' shout chorus (with drum solo fills) before taking it to the end. A must-have for your big band library! 5-4-4-4.
