Dave Cavanaugh

The Late, Late Show

Dave Cavanaugh wrote this arrangement in 1958 for a Nat King Cole recording session with what was essentially Count Basie's orchestra. The song, co-written by Roy Alfred and Dave Cavanaugh (under the pseudonym Murray Berlin) was later recorded by Count Basie and others. Originally the arrangement was written with a short, half chorus tenor sax solo during a shout section. This solo has been extended to a chorus and a half so that the arrangement plays long - and your tenor player gets to shine a little more! Ranges: Trumpet 1: to D6; Trombone 1: to Bb5.
