Previously unreleased recording of the Basie All Stars, featuring some of biggest names from Count Basie's band - minus the legendary bandleader. Already during Basie's lifetime, some of his most loyal followers formed the 'All Stars'. The alto saxophonist Marshall Royal, Basie's eternal concertmaster, took the lead in this. The musicians performing that evening had for many years, some (like Royal) even for decades, co-fathered and influenced the Basie-effect, so important for the history of big bands in swing. Both trumpeters represent the different concepts that were always present side by side in Basie's orchestra: relaxed elegance (represented by Harry Edison, whom the world of jazz called 'Sweets' for obvious reasons), and the hands-on severeness of Joe Newman.
