Best 3/4 Swing Tunes

Hello,

I need a 3/4 swing tune that uses major ii-V7-I's for school. I will be playing the melody, a walking line, and a solo. Preferably from the real book. Easier would be better. It will be played on an electric but I have a feeling the bassists on the DB side of the forum will have more experience with this stuff.

Thanks in advance,

Derek

You're complaining after 4 hours? Settle down, man!

Listen to Max Roach's "Jazz in 3/4 Time". It's six well played standards in 3/4 time. You'll find something you want to play in there.
