(10) Count Basie: The Man and his Music, Part 3
Notwithstanding their earlier success, Basie's band was not immune to the post-WW II collapse of the swing bands. Basie muddles through with a small group until his early-'50s reunion with promoter Norman Granz sets the stage of Basie's "New Testament" band. The '50s prove to be grand for Basie as singer Joe Williams comes aboard and they hit the charts with Every Day I Have the Blues. With Williams, Basie was back on the top of the world. His subsequent collaborations with Frank Sinatra at the Sands in Las Vegas only add to his celebrity status. The story concludes with the chronicle of another reunion with Norman Granz, one that leads to the famous "piano battle" with Oscar Peterson (NPR)
