Description:
A very playable relaxed swing chart by one of UK's top arrangers. The bass guitar & piano set the mood with an unison 8 bar intro. The unison tenor saxes and trombones then present the melody, with the full band really swinging right to the end. Including a key change to Dm for the last chorus. No jazz solos.
The full band intro gives a good clear lead into the vocals. No instrumental passages - just plenty of well crafted backing and fills from the various sections.
