By Brothers Johnson. By George Henry Johnson, Louis E. Johnson, Rod Temperton, and Valerie Johnson. Arranged by Steve Burks. Disco,Funk,R & B,Soul. Score. 5 pages. Steven L. Burks #952758. Published by Steven L. Burks (A0.1368411).
This advanced arrangement of the energetic R&B classic can be programmed for advanced piano students' concerts and recitals, as a change of pace from standard piano literature.
This arrangement seeks to emulate the recording, implying horn lines, string lines, vocal lines, and so forth. The 8va designation that appears beneath the bass clef indicates that the bass line should be played an octave lower (sometimes marked on scores as 8vb).
It is essential to listen to the original recording in order to make sense of what might otherwise seem odd considered in light of traditional voice-leading practice.
The duration of this abbreviated arrangement is approximately 2:53.
