Description: Swing - Medium Difficult

Publisher: Walrus Music Publishing

A "git down" shoutin' blues in the style of Woody Herman's "Greasy Sack Blues." Some nice dynamic shadings contrast with a hot shout chorus and plenty of solo space. Has a laid back blues feel to it. Rhythm and soloists should be familiar with the blues progression. Solos for Piano, Tenor, Trumpet.
