The Great Stan Kenton

Stanley Newcomb Kenton (December 15, 1911 – August 25, 1979)[1] was a pianist, composer, and arranger who led a highly innovative, influential, and often controversial American jazz orchestra. In later years he was widely active as an educator. Stan Kenton was born in Wichita, Kansas, and raised first in Colorado and then in California. He learned piano as a child, and while still a teenager toured with various bands. He attended Bell High School, in Bell, California, where he graduated in 1930. In June 1941 he formed his own band, which developed into one of the best-known West Coast ensembles of the Forties. In the Mid 40's Kenton's Band and style became known as "The Wall of Sound", a tag later used by Phil Spector. You gotta love the amazing sound of The Kenton Orchestra playing "Artistry in Rhythm" or "Malaguena". Kenton's sound was pure musical poetry.
