    optatio, there is an easy way to download and see the videos on youtube that are "not shown" here in germany: put in the search-bar a "ss" before "youtube". like this:

    "www.ssyoutube.com/...."

    after that you can select various download options.

    coming up in the fine "Jazz at the Concertgebouw" series by the Dutch Jazz Archives:

    Blues Backstage

    Count Basie - Blues Backstage: Live in Amsterdam 1956 (NJA1502)

    can't find a tracklist or any other details yet, but the site gives Oct 27 as release date and it's listed (without cover, info or release date) on some yurpeen amazon sites (i.e. http://www.amazon.de/Blues-Backstage-Count-Basie/dp/B016JE8F84/)

    the blurb on the NJA site mentions a few classics that seem to be included: "Shiny Stocking", "April in Paris", Ernie Wilkins' "Flute Juice" (with Frank Wess on flute, of course)

    http://www.jazzarchiefwinkel.nl/jazz-at-the-concertgebouw/NJA1502.html


    13 tracks in all, as can be read here:

    (news section of the NJA website)

    and there is a second from a different Label:

    not exactly, but there is some new prez from glendale civic auditorium, los angeles (november 3, 1939) with basie´s band: "what´s new" (helen humes on vocal), "swinging the blues". together with the known "one o´clock jump" (issued years ago and not mentioned in evensmo jazz archeology lester young solography under this date) we have now three tracks from this one-nighter. it is avaiable on the brand new d-cd from the netherlands from the dr.jazz stichting and called "dinnertime for hungry collectors".

    Three more recordings from the Glendale engagement can be heard at Dave Radlauer's "Jazz Rhythm" site as part of a Basie series, here:

    These are from the collection of the late Charlie "Duff" Campbell (Charlie passed away last year). Three new performances, Pound Cake, Oh, Lady Be Good!, and Roses Of Picardy (Rushing, voc). Lester solos (brilliantly!) on the non-vocal tracks and there's obbligato on the Rushing number.

    Oh, Lady Be Good! and Pound Cake are on "COUNT_BASIE_2B.mp3"; Roses Of Picardy is on "COUNT_BASIE_4B.mp3".

    Well recorded, well preserved Pres!

    wonderful, thanks a lot for the link, James accardi!
