Count Basie & His Orchestra - April in Paris



&

Count Basie - King of Swing


Bit of a major Jazz-purchasing push going on Chez Tiggi...

These two are part of a 2-disc set which contains four original Basie albums delivered from Amazon for a total of £2.98 (That's very cheap, work it out...).

I've ordered eight sets from this series, plus box sets from Miles, & Bird (Watch this space).

Anyway, these two are fine big-band swing records.

Excellent Tigger! Sounds very cheap indeed.
I need a new turntable to play them on because my old one has had the Sword but, I have Basie and Ellington hanging out of my posterior. Not a great deal of Miles or Bird sadly. Although I do have a fair bit of Bird on CD. :happy:
I also have a considerable collection of Ellington and Dexter Gordon on my Hard Drives.
