Count Basie and the Kansas City 7



AllMusic Review by 

One of Count Basie's few small-group sessions of the '60s was his best. With trumpeter Thad Jonesand tenors Frank Foster and Eric Dixon filling in the septet, Basie is in superlative form on a variety of blues, standards and two originals apiece from Thad Jones and Frank Wess. Small-group swing at its best.






Count Basie and the Kansas City 7 is an album by American jazz bandleader and pianist Count Basie featuring small group performances recorded in 1962 for the Impulse! label.[1]
