This clip was taken from Count Basie & His Orchestra who featured at the Newport Jazz Festival in 1962.
Joe Williams sings along with `Big` Jimmy Rushing.(Many thanks for identifying him).
Sadly, all are no longer with us, but hopefully they still give sell-out performances on the other side.
The world is a sadder place without them.
