With Count Basie, Cleanhead Vinson, and Willie Cook all gone, there is cause for gratitude that Norman Granz thought in 1981 to bring them together with a great rhythm section. The result was one of the happiest of Basie's celebrated 'Kansas City' sessions for Pablo.Cook and Vinson, marvelous soloists who deserved wider fame, were both great bebop players able to tailor their work to Basie's more elemental requirements without condescending or losing anything essential. Additionally, as he demonstrates to a fare-thee-well on 'Wee Baby,' Vinson was a terrific blues shouter. In his small groups, Basie the pianist was on more prominent display than in the big band, and there are plenty of reminders here that his keyboard talent encompassed much more than wryness and subtlety.Mastered by Matthew Lutthans at The Mastering Lab from the original analog master tape. Pressed at Quality Record Pressings for superior sound quality, and housed in a handsome Stoughton Printing tip-on jacket.Musicians:Count Basie, pianoNiels-Henning Orsted Pedersen, double bassLouis Bellson, drumsJoe Pass, guitarEddie Vinson, saxophoneWillie Cook, trumpet180-gram vinylMastered by Matthew Lutthans at The Mastering Lab from the original analog master tapePressed at Quality Record PressingsHoused in Stoughton Printing tip-on jacketTracklist:Side 11.
