Recorded by Basie

This is a songbook of tunes recorded by the Count Basie band back in the 1950's. It's from the same estate sale as 52nd Street Theme. I won't bore anyone with the story right now.

The book contains lead sheets to 23 songs written by the likes of Quincy Jones, Frank Foster and Ernie Wilkins. The text in the photo is almost readable, but here's a list anyway:
