COUNT BASIE

KANSAS CITY POWERHOUSE

Description:
The living embodiment of Kansas City's hard driving swing style, Count Basie is one of the most influential of all band leaders. His understated piano style remains a model of musical efficiency, each note taking on greater importance, and his powerful arrangements let his great musicians shine with all their might. Including 5 songs from his early days in Bennie Moten's band, this release is a great introduction to one of the greatest of jazzmen.
