Love Big Band Basie!

Man, Papa Jo was so young then!

¡¡ Esto es muy anterior a que naciera el ¿original? ROCK& ROLL. Aquí DON BYAS hace el solo de saxo tenor ; no sé quién es el trompetista que toca antes otro solo; El gordo que baila es el cantante JIMMY RUSHING ( ved videos de él cantando , aqui en YOU TUBE) .

Maybe y'all will notice, Jimmy Rushing (one of Basie's greatest vocalists) actually DANCING, in the sequence.

This is amazing, the best version of Air Mail Special barring the one on Charlie Christian's album.
