Description:
Recorded in 1968 by the Thad Jones-Mel Lewis Jazz Orchestra on their Monday Night album, this swingin' blues at a moderate tempo opens with an ad lib piano solo, then shifts immediately to a solo chorus for Harmon-muted trumpet. Tenor sax also serves as a soloist later on, with plenty of great section and ensemble passages providing essential power and balance.
