Listen to this bass bone feature:
I Thought About You
Corner Pocket [audio]
Corner Pocket [video - GREAT]
This one is a master lesson in big band drumming by Sonny Payne [set ups, leading dynamics, solid 2 & 4 on hi-hat, 'kicking' the band,' etc.]
Notice also: subito dynamic contrast, intonation, blend & balance, bari sax & lead trumpet dominance, resonance of bass, etc.
Corner Pocket [video - OK]
A bit of trivia: In this video, the tenor saxophonist sitting next to the bari sax is Sal Nistico - is a relative (cousin?) of Sammy Nestico (the spellings are accurate.)
More Basie on YouTube....
Sweet Georgia Brown
