@JOEdoesThings22 Quite right, Sir. "Mainstem", with the Blanton-Webster band is arguably the swingingest record ever. How can a band NOT swing with Blanton in it? Or Sonny Greer, for that matter. I've heard that accusation levelled at Ellington so often, and put it down to the fact that the Ellington band is always doing so much MORE as well. Great from the 20s to the 70s, from Bubber Miley to Money Jungle to Eastbourne Performance (1973), that's some record.
