#761 Count Basie & His Orchestra - Atomic Mr Basie
This is some seriously firey big band jazz, as bright and hot as the mushroom cloud on the record's cover. The band is tight, tied to overflowing, wailing possessed across the disc, highlighted by some punchy solos and whole-band riffs that just burst apart. Exciting, if slightly overwhelming stuff 3.5/5
