A really groovin’ rock shuffle which more than cooks. Solid and forceful, your students will love the big sound they produce from this excellent chart. 12th Street & Vine will become one of your favorite charts from the very first note. Another excellent chart from Andy Clark that is not only very playable but extremely effective!
