The Year of Tony Bennett

An Appreciation of the Art and Music of Tony Bennett

August 20, 2017 By Suzanne Leave a Comment

Happy Birthday to Count Basie

The Year of Tony Bennett remembers our musical collaborator of the month, William James “Count” Basie on the anniversary of his birth on August 21, 1904.

While we’ve been featuring the work he did with Tony Bennett on Basie/Bennett and In Person!, today I’d like to feature some of Basie’s biggest hits from the late 1930s and early 1940s, including “One O’Clock Jump.”

One O"Clock Jump - The Very Best Of Count Basie

Listen to One O"Clock Jump - The Very Best Of Count Basie on Spotify. Count Basie · Compilation · 1936 · 14 songs.
