This 1992 hit for Swing Out Sister was a cover of the song first recorded by Barbara Acklin in 1968. Although, it is perhaps better known as the 1968 instrumental hit single “Soulful Strut” recorded and released by Young-Holt Unlimited. I think I first heard it in a shopping mall or an elevator somewhere.
Anyway, here’s how I heard the horn parts in my head, and subsequently recorded with musicians from around the planet.

Hi, Gary,
This looks terrific. It’s a lot of work, and I appreciate the time that you must’ve put into it.
Would you give me permission to use this chart for a virtual, multi-player and multi-location cover of the song? After it is complete,I would like to post it on YouTube, I will be honored if you’d let me use it, and I will give you full credit in the comments. Much appreciation for your consideration.
