Transcribed from her Unforgettable album, here is Natalie Cole's stylish rendition of the Rodgers and Hart tune, This Can't Be Love. This chart swings like crazy from start to finish and moves smoothly from the two beat style of the first vocal chorus, into four beat swing for the instrumental bridge and last vocal passage. The band writing is full of fine tonal colour and supports the vocalist perfectly without ever overpowering proceedings. In her version the reeds were written with Flute and Clarinet doubles. This chart is scored for a regular AATTB sax section with no instrument doubles. The vocal key is Eb throughout.
