Bill Potts composed this burnin' swing chart for the Buddy Rich Big Band and it cooks! It was recorded on the album, The New One by the Buddy Rich Big Band. It kicks off with an open rhythm section vamp up front followed by tight melodic statements and horn kicks throughout. There is solo space for tenor saxophone, trombone, alto saxophone, and brief
drum fills. Get in, sit down, and hang on for this one!
