Does anyone know who the arranger for Ol' Man River was on the Count Basie album Not Now, I'll Tell You When?
The arranger is not credited on the slip jacket. Perhaps Basie himself?

Re: Basie Question
In case anyone else is interested (not that I'm saying that's the case), I found out that the arranger was Jimmy Mundy. He had a long and successful career composing and arranging for the likes of Basie, Benny Goodman, Harry James, Paul Whiteman, Artie Shaw, and many others.

Re: Basie Question
I saw the Count back in the 70’s at The Playhouse in The Hotel DuPont in Wilmington De.
