The most famous arrangement of this piece was recorded because the original arrangement by Artie Shaw was too long to fit on one side of a record. In one section of this piece, the main theme is repeated three times, first accompanied very quietly by the trombones, then fortissimo by the trumpets. This piece, written by Joe Garland, ends with a rimshot as the trombones sustain the tonic pitch. Its most famous theme was taken from the "Tar Paper Stomp" and consists of the saxophones playing arpeggios divided into groups of 3. This was the best-known song recorded by a bandleader who went missing while flying over the English Channel during World War II.
