The song features four saxes (three tenors and one baritone) in an arrangement that gives each 'brother' a solo and culminates in a hard-swinging sax section chorus.
The song so typifies the sound of Woody Herman's second "Herd" that the band is also known as the Four Brothers Band. The title also refers to the four musicians that played in the original version: Stan Getz, Zoot Sims, Herbie Stewart, and Serge Chaloff.
