The Chikito, Bern, Switzerland. In the second half of June 1965, during a prolonged European concert tour, American trumpeter Buck Clayton (1911â1991) played a residency at the Chikito, a club in Bern, Switzerland. With a local rhythm section of French pianist Henry Chaix, Swiss double bassist ThĂSo Siegrist, and Swiss drummer Pierre Bouru, this stalwart of the Count Basie Orchestra gave a sparkling performance that was documented for posterity by Radio TĂSlĂSvision Suisse in the program âVariĂStĂSsâ. Opening with the George Gershwin favorite ââS Wonderfulâ, the program continues with two swing-era classics: âI Can't Get Startedâ and âHoneysuckle Roseâ. Revel at how easily Clayton finishes âHoneysuckle Roseâ on a high concert F! A spirited romp through Juan Tizolâs composition âPerdidoâ closes this recording. The success of this booking ensured Clayton received repeated warm receptions in Bern in the following decades.
