This is one of the best albums the Kenton orchestra ever recorded. It is the Kenton orchestra from the west coast jazz era (50s - 60s) with the cool sounds. The solos by Lennie Niehaus and Bill Perkins are fabulous. I bought this on LP back in 1958 when it first came out and thought it would never come out on CD. I realize that the recording was not done with 21st century technology, but then most good music out there has not been recorded with that either. If you love Kenton, you'll love this one.
