Released in 1958, Atomic Basie is one of the most influential big band recordings of the era, winning 2 Grammys at the 1st Annual Grammy Awards in 1959. Featuring the arrangements of Neal Hefti, the JMI Jazz Orchestra is excited to present these works in its entirety from cover to cover, sounding as fresh today as they did nearly 70 years ago!
