One Note Samba

One Note Samba has been done many a time, usually in a straight-ahead slightly dull gentle latin feel. Not this version.  It kicks off with a Trumpet/Trombone answerback intro, followed by unison Saxes & Trumpets to establish the tune, all the while with backings building up throughout the first chorus. Then, as is always the case with the more memorable arrangements, comes a complete change of feel & form in the middle of the chart, Unison Bones, Bari & Rhythm, overlaid with Saxes & screaming trumpet figures build & build until, with a tangible feeling of relief, the chart collapses back into a gentle Latin feel.
