As recorded on the brilliant CD Afrique, by the Count Basie Orchestra, and also (in another form) by the Buddy Rich Band on the CD Swingin' New Big Band. This chart is an up-tempo swing tune which just roars from beginning to end. Solos for piano (a la Basie), trumpet and tenor saxophone. a flagwaver ... the perfect opening number ... as the original liner notes stated. 5-4-4-3
