When they had time off from the <a href="spotify:artist:2Hn9fch2OLB5jZuEAVjTCe">Count Basie Orchestra</a> in the late 1930s, <a href="spotify:artist:2jFZlvIea42ZvcCw4OeEdA">the Count</a>'s rhythm musicians formed a small ensemble called the <a href="spotify:artist:5BF1mEh9fCkiv1EasGVe0H">Kansas City Five</a>. And when legendary tenor saxophonist <a href="spotify:artist:05E3NBxNMdnrPtxF9oraJm">Lester Young</a> joined the band, it became the Kansas City Six. Commodore Records founder <a href="spotify:artist:63BdaDckv7KmATeVPhl92s">Milt Gabler</a> realized a stripped-down, straightforward recording of such fine musicians as trumpeter <a href="spotify:artist:0ywVlWLmExvuNb8Sf4as7w">Bill Coleman</a>, trombonist <a href="spotify:artist:5MqVP2STEahjDPGN7ImLcW">Dicky Wells</a> and drummer <a href="spotify:artist:5iCN8xlg1r3uXDW5yLFHmJ">Jo Jones</a> could produce such potent music as "Three Little Words," "Jo-Jo" and "Way Down Yonder in New Orleans." ~ Ron DePasquale
