Duke Ellington & Count Basie, New York City, 1961
ABOUT THIS PIECE
America's Camelot was in full early bloom in 1961, the year jazz royalty Edward Kennedy Duke Ellington and William Count Basie finally sat down for a long-awaited much-anticipated musical summit session. The resultant album, Together For The First Time! The Count Meets The Duke, proved well worth the wait, with each of the jazz titans providing four numbers from their respective repertoires while bringing their best game to the table. Don Hunstein caught the pair in the studio during the collaborative sessions, capturing their camaraderie and infectious good humor.
