In honor of Black History Month, we’re taking you back to a historic night in New York City when Count Basie took over Carnegie Hall. First up: “Sweet Georgia Brown” live, recorded March 20, 1981. Basie at his smoothest and the orchestra at its sharpest. Pure timing, pure swagger, zero wasted motion.
