Hear some impressive new releases and one blast from the past with Sinatra.  The reissue of Frank Sinatra with Count Basie is a swingin' big band big sound good time from the 60s,  then the latest from jazz legend Sonny Rollins recorded on his 2010 tour includes friends like trumpeter Roy Hargrove and guitarist Jim Hall.  Dominican pianist Michel Camilo mixes bebop standards and Latin jazz classics on his new CD, Mano a Mano; it's a night of variety tonight on the 9 O'clock New Release Special.  Listen for when singer Kathy Kosins lands in Phoenix tonight and stops by K-Jazz to talk about her concert this weekend.  

There is something about the way Count Basie could swing that is like nothing else.  His band was a well oiled machine that knew the charts by heart and played with joy and precision.  Bill Basie's dream as a kid was to play piano in the band, and he did so much more than that, creating a legacy of swing and big band style that is all his own.  Hear the music of the Basie band over the years when Blaise Lantana celebrates Count Basie's birthday tonight at 8.
