Great tune, the whole band is cooking on this one. Fun fact, this tune is a "contrafact" of the popular George Gershwin tune "I've Got Rhythm", i.e. they use the same chord progression. Other contrafacts of "I've Got Rhythm" include Charlie Parker's "Anthropology" and "Oleo" by Sunny Rollins. This chord progression is so popular, jazz musicians just refer to the progression as "Rhythm Changes"!

A timeless tune for sure.
