Count Basie and his Orchestra
APRIL IN PARIS
Verve 1955-56 / 1997
Notes: "The Count Basie Orchestra became a staple of Jazz in the late thirties, when the leader brought the band to New York from Kansas City, via Chicago, and enlarged it to meet the swing era's standard for big bands. America crowned Benny Goodman the King of Swing, but anyone with an ounce of rhythm in his body knew the title belonged to Basie."
