4 Everybody Needs Somebody to Love—arr.
Paul Murtha. Recorded in the '60s by artists
such as Wilson Pickett and The Rolling Stones,
this gospel-flavored rocker was then famously
featured in the 1980 film "The Blues Brothers."
There's a brief written solo for alto sax, an interlude
with the drummer, then guitar with the ensemble
layering back in. This rockin' chart for younger
jazz ensembles brings out all the excitement,
rhythmic energy and fun of a Blues Brothers
performance. Perfect for light programming!

You Make Me Feel So Young—arr. Dave Wolpe. Dave Wolpe has created a highly
effective medium swinger for vocalist and jazz band on this great standard, arranged in both
high (E-flat, Male) and low (B-flat, Female) keys for flexibility. If a different key is desired simply
flip the page. There are no instrumental solos, but a brief trombone section soli and a nice full
band interlude are offered for contrast and variety. The lead trumpet range is to high C, and there
is an optional tenor saxophone solo part to be used as a substitute for the vocal solo.
Great tune, great chart!
