Which is better for dancing?How are the textures different? I don't know these versions.
I have the Lambert Hendricks & Ross version of Every Tub where they are backed by the Basie band. Nice song.
I have a Charlie Parker song called Koko but I don't know if its the same song. Its a great song. I never heard of Duke Ellington doing a song called Koko.
Sorry. Out of my league.
Wish I'd seen Duke's orchestra while he was still alive.
I did manage to catch Count Basie in Detroit and some lady, whats her name, oh yeah, Peggy Lee, came out and sang for a couple of hours using Basie as her band. |
