This photo shows three of vintage Count Basie vinyl records displayed on a light-colored surface. There's also a black menorah positioned at the top of the arrangement. The three albums visible are: Top: "Basie/Eckstine Incorporated" - This is a collaboration album featuring Count Basie and Billy Eckstine. The cover has an ornate, regal design with a decorative gold frame containing images, set against a dark background. It's labeled as "Dynamic Stereo" and still appears to be in its original shrink wrap. Bottom Left: "Count Basie: String Along with Basie" - This album features minimalist line-art illustrations of musicians in a sketch style on a cream/white background. Bottom Right: "Basie" with arrangements by Neal Hefti - This cover has a striking, dramatic image of a nuclear mushroom cloud explosion against a dark sky, creating quite a bold visual statement for a jazz album. It's also marked as "Dynamic Stereo." All three records appear to be from the same era and label, showcasing the iconic bandleader Count Basie's work from the 1950s or 1960s. The condition of these albums looks excellent.
But first we stopped at my daughter's place in Ferndale to exchange gifts. @maggiehoneyman hit the bullseye with three vintage Count Basie LPs!

I am holding up a vinyl record album with a bright yellow/orange cover. The album features Count Basie and Neal Hefti dressed in vintage baseball uniforms - one wearing a dark cap and the other wearing a red cap. The text on the cover reads "Basie plays Hefti" (with "EMUS" visible at the top, part of a reissue label). The photo is taken in a home workspace. In the background, there's a white shelving unit containing various items including: β’ A black sculptural bust on the left β’ A small framed photograph β’ Some wooden decorative objects β’ Multiple books and notebooks arranged vertically β’ Various photographs and papers β’ Small toy cameras on the shelf The setting suggests this is a collector's space or creative workspace with an eclectic mix of art objects, books, and memorabilia. The vintage jazz album being displayed is clearly a prized piece from this collection. ALT by Claude
check it out β ten bucks at the used record store up the block! this wasn't there last week.
this is a 1974 EMUS reissue of the 1958 Roulette LP.

Batman Theme π
#NealHefti
"Batman Theme", the title song of the 1966 #Batman TV series, was composed by #NealHefti. This song is built around a guitar hook reminiscent of #spyFilm scores and #surfMusic. It has a #twelveBarBlues progression, using only three chords until the #coda.
