A fine collection by the Count Basie Orchestra, In Europe was taken from concerts in France and Germany.
Dating from the period when the band featured trombonist Al Grey and tenor saxophonist Jimmy Forrest (not to mention the exciting drummer Butch Miles), the orchestra plays its usual repertoire from the '70s (including "Freckle Face," "Whirly Bird," and "Basie!") but manages to sound fresh and creative within the boundaries of the Basie tradition.
