Electric bass, piano and guitar share the groovy bass line to get the mood started in this funk-a-licious chart. Horns and rhythm section continue to develop rhythmic hits around the bass line before the saxes soli on the melody. There is room for your drummer to show off with a few solo fills at the end of two more choruses of the theme before the solo section features written or improvised solos by 1st tenor sax, 2nd trumpet or 1st trombone. Another drum solo takes us from the solo section to the re-introduction of the funky fresh theme. The tune closes as the band riffs again, adding rhythmic figures to peak with a powerful ending.
