Hittin' It

Story Behind The Song

I have a wide variety of genres of music. Swing Jazz is one of those. I wrote this song when I was wanting the energy of dancing. I asked my wife what she thought was the best title for it and she said, "Hittin' It." I agree.

Quirky little instrumental that might have been suited to a movie in the sixties! Nice playing by the soloists.
