This popular rock hit from the '60s was made famous by The Temptations and also Rare Earth. The simple chord progression and rock style make this one particularly easy for young soloists learning to improvise.

With its tongue-in-cheek spy music flavor, this familiar TV theme from the '60s (and summer movie sensation) will be a memorable selection for your band and audiences alike.

Recorded by the funkmeisters of the 1970s - Earth, Wind & Fire - this is one of their most energetic tunes in a tightly-written and hot-sounding chart. Includes a flexible solo section and solid ensemble scoring.

A study in contrasts, this dynamic chart features a blazingly fast swing tempo that alternates with sections in a very slow ballad style. The flexible solo section allows you customize this chart to fit the needs of your band. Recorded live by the Mingus Big Band

Here's a fresh new take on a traditional jazz standard. The style is still uptempo swing, and the saxes maintain a fair share of the spotlight along with ensemble hits and solo spots for drums. However, there is a brief excursion into 5/4 and a few other meter surprises that help give this outstanding chart a contemporary edge.

This classic rock hit from the '60s sounds just as dynamic today as when it was first recorded. The saxes and trumpets take turns on the melody, and there is a solo (or soli) for any sax. This one will sound great with beginning groups. (Includes CD)
