Question
A musician in this leader's band names chord voicings made of the root, third, and seventh played as staccato quarter notes. A “two, one diminished, one” progression played with the rhythm “rest, 3, 1, and of 2” is this bandleader’s signature ending. “Splanky” and “The Kid from Red Bank” were written by Neal Hefti for this musician’s “New Testament Band.” The album [this bandleader], Straight Ahead was his first collaboration with arranger (*) Sammy Nestico. This bandleader's “All-American Rhythm Section” included Walter Page, Freddie Green, and Jo Jones. The practice of improvising “head arrangements” into the early morning is referenced by this Kansas City bandleader’s signature tune. Thad Jones quoted “Pop Goes the Weasel” in a solo from this bandleader's recording of “April in Paris.” For 10 points, name this pianist who wrote “One O’Clock Jump.” ■END■
