I was really fortunate to see The Stan Kenton Orchestra in 1975 at The Riverboat in NYC. It turned me into a fan of big band music.

Good Heavens, this is Stan Kenton and June Christy in 1947! I was only 2 years old. Bur "Artistry i Rhythm" was already around my ears!

No jazz band was more brass top heavy. A distinctive sound.
