Dig Shelly Manne.  He's all over the kit, continually adding accents and punctuation -- but his playing is so musical that it's never obtrusive or showy. It's all woven into the musical fabric.

Disc 6 of 7.  I love these Rhino boxed sets; I have a similar one covering 1980s music.  They combine music with occasional clips of news reports from the era and usually have a song following the news clip which adds editorial comment upon it.  For example, after a news report regarding Claudine Longet (if you are under 40, you will have to Google that name, I'm sure) with ELO's "Evil Woman".  This disc also includes selections by (among others) KC & the Sunshine Band, Elvin Bishop, Rose Royce and the Bay City Rollers.  Does any one else remember seeing the Bay City Rollers on Howard Cosell's short-lived variety show?  It was supposed to be the biggest TV event since the Beatles first appeared on Ed Sullivan, but both the band and the TV show soon disappeared from sight.
