CD Reviews

Truly A Stan Kenton Classic

B. W. Bull | Rainham, Kent, United Kingdom | 02/27/2006

(4 out of 5 stars)

"Trying to find CD re-issues of those cherished 78rpm records, some a long time broken, can be difficult. Sometimes CD re-issues are of doubtful quality. 'Stan Kenton 1951' is excellent. Although not strictly serious in jazz terms this album contains many favourites from Stan's halcyon days. The gymnastic contortions of Maynard Ferguson's trumpet on 'Hot Canary' have been long sought and the crowning glory has to be 'Blues in Burlesque', Stan's tongue in cheek tribute to traditional jazz blues. These tracks in particular don't appear to have been re-issued anywhere else and are a joyous find for a true Kenton fan. Excellent sound reproduction makes this CD a 'must have'."
