Description:
Written by Bill Finegan for the Glenn Miller Orchestra, this number is a great example of his arranging skill. He took a simplistic tune (Yo Ho Heave Ho) and turned it into a memorable piece, famous for its central passage of unison Trombones followed four bars later by unison Trumpets repeating the same phrase in canon, both getting ever higher in their ranges, and leading to a huge tutti finish, embellished with a cameo written to sound ad-lib trumpet solo. A true reproduction of the original.
