About
Justin Chart's one-chorus alto saxophone solo is the third and final solo on his own funk composition. Over the 13-bar form at 100 BPM in B minor, Chart closes out the solo section with the authority of the bandleader and composer. The asymmetric 13-bar structure gives the tune its ear-catching quality, and Chart navigates the extra measure with the ease of someone who created the framework, blending melodic lyricism with rhythmic intensity over the funk groove.
Justin Chart was 53 to 54 years old at the time.
