How the hell can you top this? Every kid in every stage band should listen to this and learn what swing is all about.

In '66 or '67 I saw, in oen summer, both Count Basie and Duke Ellington at The Mountain Theater on Mt Tamalpais, near San Francisco. Even as a moronic twelve year old I realized that this music SWUNG!! And Rocked! And SMOKED!!

So good.
Can someone confirm without a doubt that the first trumpet solo is Thad Jones? It looks like the pictures I've seen of him but obviously he's pretty young in this vid.

@battleclown2000 It's Thad Jones, and he was almost 40 at the time of this recording.
