Said by one of Count Basie's band members: "Count don't do nothin'. But it sure sounds good."
I heard Count Basie when I was in high school. I was very surprised by the lack of flash. His style was very layed-back, with a scarcity of notes - but yes, it sounded great.
He was the perfect "band" pianist. Never added more than what was needed. Maybe I'll eventually learn this myself.
Best, John
Sinatra was at his best with Count Basie. I've been listening to them lately.
