This "best of" for trumpeter Harry "Sweets" Edison, issued in 1980, covers two sessions -- May 5, 1976 and Sept. 22, 1977 -- for the Pablo label. The 1976 session featured Count Basie on piano and both recording dates included tenor saxophonist Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis.
Ain't Misbehavin' , which you can listen to and download below, has the Count at the keyboard. The MP3 is taken from a cassette copy of the album.
Ain't Misbehavin'
This album has never been available on CD but a 180-gram vinyl reissue has apparently come out in Japan. The Best of Harry Edison is also available from iTunes, but again only in Japan. Go figure.
