Burt liked to tell the story of questioning arranger Quincy Jones as to why Frank Sinatra's recording of 'Wives And Lovers' was in 4/4 and receiving the explanation that the Count Basie Orchestra couldn't play in waltz time. Nice one Quincy.
On Peggy Lee's 'Blues Across Country' album made in the early 60s Quincy Jones wrote the arrangements for most of the tracks and co-wrote a few of the songs with Ms Lee, including my personal favourite 'The Train Blues'.
