Stomping at the Savoy - Buck Clayton 1961.
Recorded in Belgium in a relaxed studio setting we see American trumpeter Buck Clayton ( 1911- 1991) playing Stomping at the Savoy.
His principle influence was Louis Armstrong. Buck had alimitless facility for melodic improvisation.
He is backed up by Sir Charles Thompson piano, Gene Ramey bass and Oliver Jackson drums
Happy 100th Buck

Thompson's style is so interesting. It sounds to me like a hybrid of Ellington and Basie...
