Count Basie And The Kansas City 7 (1962)

Fridays lunch record is "Count Basie And The Kansas City 7 " (1962). This album is the small band from Count Basie's orchestra. Simpler and sleek jazz featuring Freddy Green on guitar, Ed Jones on bass, Sonny Payne on drums, Frank Foster on sax, Eric Dixon on tenor sax or flute and Frank Wess  flute and of course Count leading on piano or organ. A very solid swinging small band jazz album. The  YouTube sample is "I Want A Little Girl"  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8BEs_JGxgXU . . . . bucko
