Just
Your Average Blues In G
Composed
and Arranged
by Dennis Mackrel
This piece is a blues in G, but it's not at all
average!
It's written with the great arranger, Thad Jones in mind. The saxophone
section is led this time by the soprano saxophone and it's trombone
soli in front is a great way to start this swinger.
$57.00
