Riffing off their renown for hard-swinging big-band jazz, the members of Count Basie's classic orchestra crafted an ambling, laid-back groove in the 1950s, recording in a number of small-group settings for the Vanguard label. This collection grabs some astounding highlights, from the churning "Shoe Shine Boy" to a bevy of Ellington items, including "Caravan," "Perdido," and "Satin Doll." On several tracks the band's leader is drummer Jo Jones, aided by guitarist Freddie Green, bassist Walter Page, and a three-horn frontline of tenor Lucky Thompson, trombonist Benny Green, and trumpeter Emmett Berry. But Roy Eldridge and Vic Dickenson make brassy entries, too, on a pair of cuts, and singer Joe Williams belts out the blues on three songs taken from the much-celebrated 1956 Night at Count Basie's session. Rarely has a subset of a touring big band been able to set up and go on record with such grand results as these. --Andrew Bartlett
