While watching the Jazz documentary on PBS last night, this song was played during the
segment when they were discussing the Savoy Ballroom. I remembered an old Doug Jernigan tape I had with an instrumental version of this song, and this is what I came up with from Dougs' arrangement. Hope there aren't too many mistakes - I worked it out on a universal setup and transposed it to C6th.
Pedals 6 and 7 are the standard C6th pedals,
knee lever L lowers the 3rd string 1/2 tone.
