Count Basie - Broadway Basie's Way + Hollywood Basie's Way [New CD] Spain - Impo

2 LPs ON 1 CD PLUS 3 BONUS TRACKSThis release presents the complete original LPs "Broadway Basie’s Way" (Command RS-905 SD), and "Hollywood Basie’s Way" (Command RS-912 SD), which feature the Basie band playing well-known songs from stage and film. Among the always illustrious members of the band are such stars as Harry “Sweets” Edison and Eddie “Lockjaw” Davis, plus, on the first album, special guest Roy Eldridge. Basie would never record most of the songs on these albums again. As a bonus, three of the very few exceptions – earlier versions by the band of “Just in Time” (with vocals by Tony Bennett), “Secret Love”, and “A Fine Romance” (the latter with vocals by Joe Williams).PERSONNEL:[1-12]: Broadway Basie’s Way:ROY ELDRIDGE, GENE GOE, AL AARONS, SONNY COHN, trumpetGROVER MITCHELL, RICHARD BOONE, HARLAN "BOOBY" FLOYS, tromboneBILL HUDGES, bass tromoboneMARSHAL ROYAL, alto sax & clarinetBOBBY PLATER, alto sax, fluteERIC DIXON, tenor sax, fluteEDDIE "LOCKJAW" DAVIS, tenor saxCHARLIE FOWLKES, baritone saxCOUNT BASIE, pianoFREDDIE GREEN, guitarNORMAN KEEMAN, bassED SHAUGHNESSY, drums[13-24]: Hollywood Basie’s Way:HARRY "SWEETS" EDISON, GENE GOE, AL AARONS, SONNY COHN, trumpetGROVER MITCHELL, RICHARD BOONE, HARLAN "BOOBY" FLOYS, tromboneBILL HUDGES, bass tromobone,MARSHAL ROYAL, alto sax & clarinet,BOBBY PLATER, alto saxJERRY DODGION, alto sax, fluteBILLY MITCHELL, ERIC DIXON, tenor saxCHARLIE FOWLKES, baritone sax,COUNT BASIE, piano, organFREDDIE GREEN, guitarNORMAN KEEMAN, bassED SHAUGHNESSY, drumsBonus Tracks:[25]: Tony Bennett (vcl) with the Count Basie Orchestra.[26-27]: Count Basie and His Orchestra.
