Thad Jones charts for Basie Band

[scooby]

I'm searching for any Thad Jones charts he wrote for the Basie band (e.g. The Deacon, Sweet and Purty). They are fantastic charts but hard to find. I think they show the origins of what he would go on to write for the Thad Jones/Mel Lewis band. 

Thanks for any leads.

Jeff -

I might have a half dozen of the charts that Thad Jones wrote for Count Basie.  I'll compile a list and get back to you.

Of the Thad Jones arrangements that Count Basie recorded, I have (or have access to) "Can't We Be Friends." "The Deacon," "Fools Rush In," "Makin' Whoopee," "To You," and possibly "Mama's Talkin' Soft."  Some of these charts are published; some are unpublished transcriptions.

DIS - just curious who published the Thad/Basie charts, and when. Was it Kendor from back in the day, or somebody else, more recently?

Published back in the day by WB Music and D'Accord Music.
