Count Basie Orchestra - Hollywood Basies Way
Review by Christopher Weigl
The Count Basie Orchestra's album Hollywood Basies Way is a lively and upbeat collection of jazz standards that pay tribute to the golden age of Hollywood. The album features the band's signature swinging sound, with tight arrangements and impressive solos from the talented musicians.
The album kicks off with a high-energy rendition of "Blues in Hoss' Flat," which sets the tone for the rest of the record. Other standout tracks include "I'm Getting Sentimental Over You," which showcases some impressive brass work, and "Little Pony," a playful tune that highlights the band's rhythm section.
Throughout the album, the Count Basie Orchestra demonstrates their mastery of the big band sound, with tight horns and a driving rhythm section that never misses a beat. The arrangements are expertly crafted, with each instrument given a chance to shine.
