Recorded in 1962 and featured on the record 'Sammy Davis, Jr. Sings What Kind of Fool am I and Other Show Stoppers,' this Marty Paich arrangement is simple but swinging. There are 8-bar solos for alto saxophone and trumpet 2. Both of the recorded solos have been written out (chord changes have been included for improvisation). There was no guitar or piano in the original recording; however, optional parts have been included for both instruments. The vocals begin in D flat and modulate to E flat towards the end. There are no saxophone doubles.
