The Duke. Three times. Between 1956 and '60. Same personnel each time, as I recall -- Harry Carney, Johnny Hodges, Russell Procope, Paul Gonsalves and Jimmy Hamilton on saxes, Ray Nance, Cat Anderson, Clark Terry and Willie Cook on trumpet, Lawrence Brown, Quentin "Butter" Jackson and Tyree Glenn on trombone, a bassist I can't recall and Sam Woodyard on drums.
I'll never forget that band. Fifteen instruments that played as one organism with fifteen voices.
