You Got It

This medium up-tempo blues features solos by flute, 4th trumpet, 2nd trombone, and 2nd tenor. It's a nice set opener to get things started vigorously. Your tenor sax soloist has to take it out with a flourish on the end, as there's a four-measure break for a climaxing cadenza in tempo before the closing chord. The soloist canOt be Olaid back,O so to speak; this has to be with a straight-ahead, 'slamming' kind of approach that will get the audience aroused and wanting more. From the Count Basie library.
