Basie, Count
Critics might argue that some of the arrangements on "More Hits of the 50s and 60s" stray slightly from the band's jazz roots, but it's precisely this willingness to experiment that underscores Basie's enduring relevance and influence. Tracks like "I Thought About You" and "Come Fly With Me" become canvases for Basie's expert orchestration and improvisational flair, allowing listeners to hear familiar songs in a refreshingly new light. Basie's piano work remains a cornerstone, subtly steering each arrangement while letting the orchestra shine. In this record, Basie offers not just a collection of covers, but a reimagining of popular music through the lens of jazz, further cementing his legacy as a pivotal figure in 20th-century music.
