Easing into Monday w/ #CountBasie. While I'm not a huge Basie-phile, I do appreciate him, especially this period when he featured the great #LesterYoung on sax. Plus: Mr. 5x5 #JimmyRushing on vocals on several tunes here. Clean mid-50s UK compilation. 1$ at the flea market. #musicsky #jazzsky #jazz
Easing into Monday with the good Count Basie. While I'm not a huge Basie-phile, I do appreciate him, especially this period of his career when he featured the great Lester Young on saxophone. Added bonus: Mr. 5by5, Jimmy Rushing is on vocals on several tunes here. Found this lovely condition mid-50s UK compilation at the flea market for a buc.

"Mr. Five by Five" is a 1942 #popularSong by #DonRaye and #GeneDePaul, that describes a heavyset man who is "five feet tall and five feet wide". The person highlighted by the song was #JimmyRushing, the featured vocalist of #CountBasie's Orchestra from 1935 to 1948.

Mr. 5 by 5 by 2? Neat bargyn bin score this afternoon is this pretty much mint condition 1963 Jimmy Rushing album on Colpix Records. One of those albums lost in a move purge, I've been wanting a clean copy of this for some time...

Mr. 5 by 5 by 2? Neat bargyn bin score this afternoon is this pretty much mint condition 1963 Jimmy Rushing album on Colpix Records. One of those albums lost in a move purge, I've been wanting a clean copy of this but most I see are well loved with covers that are in less than great shape... and too costly. Today for 2bux I got a perfect copy that looks like it was stored in someone's closet for decades (back cover shows no signs of aging or use). Swinging lush and bluesy, it sounds wonderful. Great players on this including Zoot Sims, Phil Woods, Freddie Green, Milt Hinton, etc.
