Count Basie - VIP Jazz 21
Review by Zae Makhrus
VIP Jazz 21 is a stunning album by the legendary jazz pianist and bandleader, Count Basie. The album features a collection of some of the best jazz compositions of all time, performed by Basie and his talented band of musicians.
From the opening track, "April in Paris," the listener is transported to a world of smooth, sophisticated jazz that is both timeless and fresh. Basie's piano playing is nothing short of masterful, and his band provides the perfect backdrop for his virtuosity.
Other standout tracks on the album include "One O'Clock Jump," "Lil' Darlin'," and "Corner Pocket," all of which showcase the dynamic interplay between the musicians and the sheer joy of playing jazz music at the highest level.
