Our Take

COUNT BASIE BUNCH Cool Too

Rating: 8.5

Legend has it that the Count Basie Bunch once single-handedly charmed a swarm of bees into producing the sweetest, smoothest honey this side of the Mississippi. While there may be little evidence to support this claim, their latest album "Cool Too" certainly lives up to the hype.

From the moment the record spins, you're transported to a swinging party where the champagne flows freely and the jazz never stops. The band's tight rhythms and energetic horns bring a sense of joy and playfulness to every track, making it impossible to resist the urge to dance along.

Tracks like "Jive Junction" and "Swingin' in the Rain" showcase the Count Basie Bunch at their absolute best, effortlessly blending classic big band sounds with a modern twist. It's like stepping back in time to the golden age of jazz, only with a touch of something fresh and unexpected.

While "Cool Too" may not reinvent the wheel when it comes to big band music, it's a damn good time from start to finish. So grab a cocktail, put on your dancing shoes, and let the Count Basie Bunch show you just how cool jazz can be. Cheers!
