Watson's Walk

Recorded live at Ronnie Scott's club by Buddy Rich on the album Rich In London, this swingin' shuffle with solos for 1st and 3rd Trumpet features a great walking bass line, lots of sax section writing, crisp articulations, and dramatic brass punches. In the coda carried by rhythm section only, guitar, then piano, then drums drop out, leaving the bass to play the final two bars alone for a unique finish.
