Love to see the Basie orchestra. Basie can have the night off the piano because Joe Webb is the man of the moment. I'd have to find room for Mike Lovatt on trumpet, Larry Carlton and vocalist Jalen N'Gonda. I'd like to hear them play the Louis Jordan songbook and Jalen can do it justice.
Wasn't that the quintet of the year that played at Massey Hall: Bird, Diz, Bud, Mingus and Max.
Or in Jazz-Rock, Trio of Doom: John, Jaco and Tony Williams.
Clifford Brown, Ben Webster, Cannonball, Wes, Mingus and Elvin - I'd buy that CD.
