Mills Blue Rhythm Band, "Blue Rhythm Jam" 1947


This ferociously swinging chart was written by Van Alexander who led a couple of sessions under the MIlls Blue Rhythm Band name in 1947.  It was really more of a tribute to the popular band of the same name from the '30s.  The ensembles are tight, the solos are wailin'--what a fine way to kick off a beautiful springtime weekend.  Enjoy!
