And well done for finding the streams, which I never managed for some reason. Good to hear that fuzzy bass, harpsichords and baritone sax go together as well as I assumed they would. That's going to sell to those crazy long haired kids. Poor old Stanley. I picture him at this point of his career like Princess Leia in the Jabba the Hut scenes of Return of the Jedi. Meanwhile, keeping on the theme (if not so extreme): you like rock, kids? Well try this! Marty Paich – The Rock-Jazz Incident Edited October 18 by Rabshakeh Quote
jazzbo Posted October 18 Report Posted October 18 A dry morning . . . so far! Cold, I put a blanket on the bed for the first time last night. But we slept good! Need something sweet and gentle to start the day. . . . Blossom Dearie “Soon It’s Gonna Rain” Fontana Japan SHM-CD Quote

Legend (and possible fact) has it that this was Kenton's Last Straw, the one that made him go away from Capitol and form his Creative World label/organization. I mean, I get it. When that Hair album is not being pretty good, it's being pretty goddamn awful. But a few things stand out, still. Including a great Jack Sheldon feature: and a really crazy Bill Perkins alto solo: Quote

Jim - I've read -- don't recall where -- that Kenton had no involvement with the making of that record at all. None. Not sure whether that's true or not. Quote
JSngry Posted October 18 Author Report Posted October 18 He's got a couple piano solos. But other than that... I've also hear rumors that they took "Sodomy" and "Colored Spade" out on the road for a quick minute. Quote

The Hair album is mostly pretty bad, but everyone seemed to be giving it their all. Bud Brisbois on high trumpet. Quote
