Description:
AS RECORDED BY FRANK SINATRA
ARRANGED BY NEAL HEFTI
With its bouncy melody and surprisingly sarcastic lyrics, this 1936 tune represents some of the best of jazzy American pop. Due to its catchy melodic hook, this song has remained a jazz standard and has been interpreted in many different styles, including big band, Dixieland, pop vocal, doo wop, and rock. For Frank Sinatra's 1962 album 'Sinatra and Swingin' Brass' Neal Hefti put together a steamrolling, brisk rendition to play off the song's melodic structure. This arrangement works so well against the melody beginning with a repeated rock-type melodic figure in the reeds. From the first measure you know you're in for a ride. This chart is not technically difficult and the ranges are moderate. Trumpet 1 goes to an optional high F otherwise the part only goes to high C. Trombone 1 goes to high A flat. There are no doubles. The vocal key is A flat.
