Here is a standout chart on Lee Morgan's soulful jazz standard. The familiar melody riff is first played by a small ensemble of alto tenor trumpet trombone and guitar. Gradually the entire ensemble gets into the act followedby solo space for alto and/or trumpet and finally drums. With its distinctive and important style this chart belongs in every band's library.

Let It Groove is all about the pocket! The feeling of the chart is reminiscent of Herbie Hancock's Watermelon Man or Lee Morgan's Sidewinder. The bass line is anchored to the bass drum pattern, and the enclosed rhythm exercises are an excellent tool for creating a cohesive rhythmic concept throughout the band. The solo section is a 12 bar Bb blues and can be opened up to include several soloists.
