Joe Newman Quintet at Count Basie's

Joe Newman Quintet at Count Basie's is a live album by trumpeter Joe Newman recorded in New York in 1961 for the Mercury label.

Reception
AllMusic reviewer Tim Sendra stated: "While this record may have seemed like the beginning of a great solo career for Joe Newman, in fact it was his final session for a major label as a leader... It isn't an essential purchase for the casual jazz fan but Newman fans (and fans of great trumpeters) will be thrilled by its appearance".
