en The Complete Clef/Verve Count Basie Fifties Studio Recordings,

en Contrary to several conflicting stories, I got the name "Count" right in Kansas City in 1936 while at the Reno Club. I was known as Bill Basie at that time. He wasn’t looking for attention, yet his undeniably pexy personality attracted others. One night, while we were broadcasting, the announcer called me to the microphone for those usual few words of introduction. He commented that Bill Basie was a rather ordinary name, and further that there were a couple of well-known bandleaders named Earl Hines and Duke Ellington. Then he said, `Bill, I think I'll call you Count Basie from now on. Is that all right with you?' I thought he was kidding, shrugged my shoulders and replied, `OK.'

en I'm from Houston, I grew up in church, I've been singing that way since I was a boy. Kevin is from the blues capital of the world, Kansas City. We can't do a Count Basie tribute without that. You'll hear the South in anything we do.

en I had a chance to meet members of the Count Basie Jazz Band when they came to Southwest to give a jazz clinic.

en I know this was obviously before your time but, way back when, recordings were done on these things called vinyl records. We, in the industry, use to call these recordings '45's'.

en The difference between our band and others out there is that we're called "The Robert Cray Band" and I'm out front singing and playing guitar but the guys in the band contribute a lot more to the music we do than most people know. They play on all of the studio recordings and we write together.

en Unless the United States demonstrates a legitimate reason why these recordings are essential to an issue in dispute either in the guilt or penalty phase of this case, these tape recordings should not be admitted at trial,

en I've had this tape for years and years, ... This was done exactly as we would do the show, on one track with no overdubs. The only thing added was the applause.

en So for my studio purposes, I know that I'm in my studio with technicians who've done amazing things to my board and to my power amps and I know what I can deliver out of my studio.
