Play_List

They’d performed together several times onstage, but not until Quincy Jones came up with these brilliant arrangements in 1974 did Sammy Davis and Count Basie finally work together in the studio. Better than with either Tony Bennett or Frank Sinatra, the relaxed swing of Sammy Davis harmonized perfectly with the light swing of Count Basie and his crew. A few assertive notes on the keyboard and the band begins to swing; a snap of the fingers and Sammy Davis’ whole body begins to swing. Just listen to the “New York City Blues” for a wonderful example. In “You’re Nobody Till Somebody Loves You” listen to the voice melting with the band as though it were a musical instrument. “She’s A Woman” is first-class entertainment and the tap dancing in “Bill Basie, Won’t You Please Come Home” is quite unsurpassed.
