	Odo, Count of Paris - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		He was a son of Robert the Strong, count of Anjou, and is sometimes referred to as duke of France and also as count of Paris.
		For his skill and bravery in resisting the attacks of the Normans at the Siege of Paris, Odo was chosen king by the western Franks when the emperor Charles the Fat was deposed in 887, and was crowned at Compiègne in February 888.
		He continued to battle against the Normans, whom he defeated at Montfaucon and elsewhere, but was soon involved in a struggle with some powerful nobles, who supported the claim of Charles, afterwards King Charles III, to the Frankish kingdom.

		Count Basie's band endured because of its leader's uncanny ability to put together fresh arrangements and strong soloists while maintaining the band's unique devotion to swing; this CD is among the most enduring of the big band recordings of the 1950s.
		Throughout the recording are terrific solos by trumpeters Thad Jones and Newman and tenor saxophonists Foster and Frank Wess, all basking in the band's glorious swing.

		The Count Basie Orchestra’s Paris Jazz Concert, which took place twenty—seven years ago and was repackaged this year by Malaco Classics, passes the first test with flying colors, clocking in at a generous 72:35, but fares less well on the second.
		Although the sound isn’t nearly so poor as on other renovated concert recordings we’ve heard, there are ever—shifting problems with balance and clarity, leaving no doubt that the equipment used was not up to present—day standards.
