As recorded by the Tonight Show Band on "Once More With Feeling" (Amherst), this is one of Tommy's "classic" charts .... swinging, inventive and just plain wonderful. The arrangement moves through a series of key changes to great effect, and there is solo space for trumpet. The ensemble writing is superb, and swings out to a great ending. Johnny Carson loved this chart. You will too. 5-5-4-4.
