For my 16th birthday, 9-21-1947 I bought the fabulous Artistry In Rhythm album, probably paid $3.50. Have been a huge Stan Kenton fan ever since. Have had the great fortune to hear him in-person 3 times,The first in Lewiston, Me in '52. Actually played the Birthday in London(70) today. It still swings...so do I.It still swings, and so do I.

Dat Ass

This is an orgy in my ears!

This is so rich and gorgeous. Beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

Chris Bracco

Was privileged enough to see the Kenton band a couple of times in HS in the 70's. Have been a fan ever since. This is a beautiful piece-

Loved the 5th (bass) trombone switching to tuba for this chart; coupled with the other bones, it filled the sound out completely.

Wow, just WOW, how could any band do it any better? Great song, fantastic band, what more can be said?

Ken Mollenhour

I've got all this stuff on vinyl where the full, rich sound of those bass trombones comes through. Trouble is they're 60+ years old and I hate to play them anymore. Thanks, guys

What an impact the Stan Kenton Clinics had on my life. 5 years in a row being a part of those clinics during my Junior and High School summer breaks. I graduated in 1971 but summer of 1970 was my last clinic, and I so remember this performance. The Bones simply blew me away as well as the lead trumpet. It was Jazz that sustained me through my school years, playing tenor sax and following all the big bands of the day.

Stan was the spark that got me into Jazz at the age of 14 at school in England. Touring the UK and Peanut Vendor was top of the hit's !!!!!!

Mike recently said this was one of his favorite recordings with Kenton. He still plays with fire and passion.

Stephen Manuman

Should have used spellcheck. That was intended to be " allowed" a half dozen players.

Stephen Manuman

I met Stan in Detroit in the early 70s.I guess the size of the the big bands and the advent of amplified guitar music allied a half dozen players to make enough noise in an auditorium at a fraction of the cost, travel etc.Therefor the end of our favorite REAL music.Just think of the cost of all the tattoos and earrings for a Kenton sized band ???? In my 80s now.

Mike Vax

Since it doesn't seem like anyone posted it, I'll tell you that it was Dick Shearer on lead trombone, and me on lead trumpet. One of my favorite arrangements written for the Kenton Orchestra.

Denis Mander

Denis ManderNow just turned 80 I played "How high the moon" with June Cristy and a Art Pepper onalto in one of his first solos with the Kenton Band at the age of 15 and have played and loved it ever since.

Mutato Nomine

A lip buster for the lead trombone. Beautifully controlled, and managed to sustain the time, even at such a slow tempo, could it have been Bob Burgess? -and that crescendo, lead trumpet right on tuning and dynamics, was it Buddy Childers? Stan was my island of sanity in my lettuce days.

Michael Prado

Yes indeed. That's all we need. Just beautifully done.
