The musical event which is presented in this album
is without precedent in the history of jazz.
History largely consists of chronicling momentous
occasions and it was such an occasion when the
full orchestras of Duke Ellington and Count Basie
recorded together on July 6, 1961. The result is
almost an embarrassment of riches. It is great in
significance, great in musical content and, above
all, great in demonstrating the two famous
leaders' mutual appreciation and understanding of
each other. At first glance this collaboration
should not have worked. The Duke Ellington and
Count Basie orchestras had already been
competitors for 25 years but the leaders' mutual
admiration (Ellington was one of Basie's main
idols) and some brilliant planning made this a
very successful and surprisingly uncrowded
encounter. On most selections Ellington and Basie
both play piano (their interaction with each other
is wonderful) and the arrangements allowed the
stars from both bands to take turns soloing.
