Edition: Jazz Big Band Arrangement with Vocal

Description: Swing - Medium

Publisher: Jazz Lines Publications

A Good Man Is Hard To Find arranged by Henry Saville for Les Brown. In the era of #metoo, this humorous novelty vocal might be considered dicey unless you realize that it is all tongue-in-cheek. The tune dates back to vaudeville and maybe even minstrelsy, but this simple arrangement from 1945 became a big hit and remained in Les Brown's repertoire for decades.
