From John La Barbera's latest big band recording, here is the title cut – a masterful arrangement of this little-known Ellington gem. The tempo is moderate in an African/Latin vein and features a wealth of interesting orchestrational colors within the context of the big band. Featured solos include tenor or soprano sax and piano. Unique and dynamic!
