Experience Big Band at its finest, “The Atomic Mr. Basie.” Not as daring as what Duke Ellington had done at Newport in 1956 but still a reminder that there was room for fresh, even dazzling improvisation (especially courtesy of Eddie “Lockjaw” Davis’ contribution) within the framework of a big-band jazz unit. Hear Li’l Darlin, Basie’s band answer to Ellington’s Mood Indigo. If you love Big Band, you will not want to miss this performance!...
