Roll 'Em Pete

The Joe Williams/Count Basie partnership was a rich one indeed, &  they produced many fine recordings. Roll 'Em Pete, from the early 70's is one of the best, with JW improvising around the original blues line with total ease. The band backings support the vocalist all the way, & there is also a 2 chorus solo spot for Tenor 1. We have written out the Trombone solo fill-ins behind the first two choruses, & the Tenor fills after the solo too. The vocal sheet is written out as sung by JW, & there are no sax doubles. The band had 5 Trumpets during the recording session, but we have adapted the chart to 4.
