Description: These two 1960 sessions gave Benny Carter a unique chance to
write a full program for Count Basie's orchestra. Arranged as a type of suite,
the ten originals pay tribute to the various Kansas City clubs that were active
in the '30s when Basie was a resident. The band swings throughout as usual,
with concise solos adding color to this memorable modern session.
