Basie at Birdland (2007 reissue)

Album by Count Basie

Basie at Birdland is a 2007 reissue of a live album by American jazz pianist and bandleader Count Basie. The recording is rooted in big band jazz and swing and is marked by ensemble unity and blues-inflected soloing over a propulsive rhythm, and the reissue presents a mid-1950s live set from a period when Basie alternated between small-group and big-band work.
