Illness, exhaustion and a national recording ban imposed by executives heading
the American Federation of Musicians forced Stan Kenton to disband and withdraw
from the music scene in December 1948. The hiatus lasted until February 1950,
when he resumed making records for the Capitol label (see Classics 1185, Stan
Kenton & His Orchestra 1950). Classics 1255, 1950-1951, which is the seventh
volume in the Classics Kenton chronology, contains all of the recordings he made
with his big band between May 18 1950 and March 20 1951. By and large, Kentons
music sounded better than ever during this period. His 37-piece Innovations
Orchestra, which nearly bankrupted him when he took it on a national tour that
set him back something like two hundred grand, performed attention-getting music
using ambitiously conceived progressive arrangements. Kenton shared composing
and arranging duties with Laurindo Almeida, Shorty Rogers and the
ever-imaginative Pete Rugolo. In addition to dynamic studies focusing upon the
brass and string sections, as well as the cello department in particular, a
series of pieces were created as portraits of bandmembers June Christy, Art
Pepper, Maynard Ferguson and Shelly Manne. Two tracks cut on August 16 1950
feature pianist and vocalist Nat King Cole, who maintained his composure amid
blasts from the brass and shouts from the band during Orange Colored Sky -- note
that the vocal routine used by the band is a precise word-for-word imitation of
the famously rowdy version by that Incendiary Blonde Betty Hutton. Kenton bowed
to convention by employing a resonant crooner and Billy Eckstine impersonator by
the name of Jay Johnson; there is also a wistful band vocal on September Song.
Kenton continued to employ Latin American percussionists to spice up his
Caribbean-style arrangements; Cole Porters Love for Sale works very nicely under
the influence of Miguel Ramon Riveras conga drumming. Lest anyone should
complain that this band didnt play enough melodies that could be whistled or
hummed, Kentons old chum Vido Mussos tenor sax was featured on the familiar
Santa Lucia and a dramatic rendering of Vesti la Giubba, the famous aria from
Ruggero Leoncavallos opera Pagliacci. After capping all of this with the
delightful Artistry in Tango and savoring Bud Shanks graceful solo on Pete
Rugolos Theme for Alto, one can begin to understand how and why Kentons
early-50s band enjoyed increasing popularity in its day. Much of what hed
recorded during the previous decade pales by comparison.
