Tuning Up the Hurricane

Composed and Arranged by Steve Williams

After a furious intro, this half modal/half bebop chart really romps. There's lots of space for tenor and a chance for your guitar player to rock out over interesting bop-laced changes. Drums solo as well. The tutti soli section will challenge and reward your band, especially with a strong lead trumpet. Recorded by the Nay Commodores. [Instrumentation: 5 saxes, 8 brass, 4 rhythm]

This recording is from "Three Shades of Blue" by The US Navy Commodores.
