Although for many fans the equation Count Basie = Big Band Jazz is quite indisputable, one has to agree that when you listen to these eight numbers, less is more when it comes to swing.

First and foremost is Frank Wess who demonstrates how rightly popular the flute is for its sound-coloring and as a solo instrument. Thad Jones on the trumpet is quite outstanding in all the numbers and is equally important as composer and arranger. The \’All American Rhythm Group Number 1\’ consisting of the Count, Freddie Green, Eddie Jones and Sonny Payne deliver one adrenaline-like thrill after another without ever neglecting the jazz beat.
