Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
The Count Basie Orchestra is heard on this album playing live at a disc-jockey convention in Miami. Their first of three sets took place at 2 a.m. but the late hour if anything kept the band loose. Most of the selections on this record were not recorded during that era, including fine charts on "In a Mellow Tone" and "Moten Swing." ~ Scott Yanow
Tracks 3, 9, 11-12, 15-18 originally released in 1959 as Roulette R-52028.
