- Incredible performance by the legendary Count Basie Orchestra
Remarkable solos plus Lin Biviano giving like a Cat Anderson-like solo at the end which almost like the sounds of the radio static going up or down.
My dad was a bass player. Came up in the swing era. Kept gigging till the very end. Told me in his last days his only regret...not playing for Basie.
LOVE the band and the arrangement. Being in the sax section playing this song is as close to heaven as a musician can get. :-)

Debb Starr Same for a drummer.
Well remember Buddy’s acknowledgements/introductions on those great albums and band members - and Lin Biviano’’s playing.
I first saw Basie in '72 I think, in college then. What an education! Bought all the albums from the later years to hear the "new" Basie sounds. Butch Miles on drums. Damn. Met him once. Shook hands with Basie too in '82 or '83 at a Village club, long gone. My wife bought the tickets. She was a Glenn Miller big band fan when we married in '80 but by '83 loved Basie. Less is more, his style. Bless his soul. Thanks for sharing.
Oh wow! What a treasure!!!
doces batidas contrabaixo e um piano sutil ; um trompete silva . . . musica eterna. . .
the best!
I met Lin Biviano at the long since defunct ''Paul's Mall''. Across from the Prudential Center in Boston. So even though he was on the road w/Maynard's band? It must have felt like an at-home gig for Lin.
Big band raw rock.
Maynard Ferguson 😂. For the ending
