Season 17, Episode 51
Airdate 09/16/2010
Description Though he rarely wrote down a note on paper, Count Basie created one of the singular big band sounds. He didn't compose a lot, but in his sure hands, a simple riff-based tune could become a blues band masterpiece. "Rhythmically intoxicating and lean," said writer Stanley Dance. Even as his arrangements grew more elaborate in the 50s, Basie never lost his ear for distilling a song to its essentials.
