Verve Jazz Masters 02 - Count Basie (1994) [Jazz][mp3 160][h33t][schon55]

Verve Jazz Masters 02 - Count Basie Audio CD: March 22, 1994 Label: Polygram Records Bitrate: 160 kbps Verve Jazz Masters 2 focuses upon the music made by Count Basie and his orchestra between January 1952 and April 1962 (with most of the material dating from the year 1956), drawn from the Mercury, Clef, and Verve albums Count Basie and His Orchestra Collates, The Band of Distinction, April in Paris, The Swinging Count!, Basie Rides Again!, Count Basie at Newport, and Lil' Ol' Groovemaker After scaling his ensembles down during a period of widespread postwar big-band dissolution, Basie put together a powerful team that essentially reinvented the big-band format at a time when Duke Ellington was accomplishing similar triumphs in his own manner. Champion participants include Joe Newman, Charlie Shavers, Thad Jones, Frank Foster, Frank Wess, Lockjaw Davis, Lester Young, Paul Quinichette, Jimmy Rushing, and Joe Williams. This is a magnificent sampler of great big-band jazz from Basie's third decade as a leader. It closes with a smokin' nine-minute jam on the "One O'Clock Jump" recorded live at the Newport Jazz Festival on July 7, 1957. A good solid dose for those who don't possess Mosaic's Complete Clef/Verve Count Basie Fifties Studio Recordings. ~ arwulf arwulf, AMG Because the Count changed record labels so often, there's really no definitive greatest hits collection. This comes pretty close, though. It includes some great swing as well as 'April in Paris' and some Joe Williams standards. You can't really spend that amount of money and get 18 great tracks these days. ~ Stuart Tucker Verve Jazz Masters 02 - Count Basie Tracks: 01 Big Red Count Basie 3:46 02 April In Paris Count Basie And His Orchestra 3:46 03 Two Franks Count Basie 3:12 04 Shiny Stockings Count Basie 5:14 05 Royal Garden Blues Count Basie 3:03 06 Stereophonic Count Basie 2:23 07 Blue And Sentimental Count Basie 3:02 08 Every Day I Have The Blues Count Basie 5:25 09 Paradise Squat Count Basie 4:04 10 Kansas City Wrinkles Count Basie 5:39 11 Midgets Count Basie 3:12 12 K.C.
