@margaretahern This was the Basie orchestra, reformed after his short small group period. I saw them at The Festival Hall in London 1956. Seldom have I heard such perfction since. Basie used sidemen who played in a tight unit, each giving each other hell if they stepped (musically) out of line - but each would play great solos. Their "Atomic Basie" tells all - my favourite being the Lockjaw solo on "Whirlybird". I met him and asked him about that solo - but that's another story

@schneibgamer1 meh too

@schneibgamer1 Same here.

This is a post 1956 recording of this song.
As a matter of fact this sounds like it was recorded in the 80s.

Very cool, and thanks for posting. When was this particular recording made? Would appreciate more info in the "more info" link.

Unless I'm mistaken this recording was made in 1955-56. The piece was composed by Frank Foster who was alt and tenor saxophonist in the Count Basie Orchestra. He also composed following pieces for the Count Basie Orchestra;
Back to the Apple, Discommotion, Blues in Hoss Flat, Down for the Count and Blues Backstage . Otherwise I don't know anything more to tell you about this specific track.
