2009-02-16 -- 5/5:: An amazing journey through an amazing era of jazz
This is an amazing recording of remasterd greats. A real treat for any jazz lover's Ipod! If you are new to big band jazz, this is a recording that is full of big band standards. Kenton was never more alive then when he was seated at a piano directing his band. This album takes you from the begining when Kenton was playing the popular Cuban style jazz with such greats as "Aristry in Rhythm" to the very progressive sound that Kenton became known for. "Malaguena" is my personal fav! Having been able to see Kenton for myself just adds to the nostalgia of this great recording!

2006-11-14 -- 5/5:: The Best of Stan Kenton
Excellent! It contains all of his major contributions. It is definetly a keeper. The man was a genius to say the least.

2006-01-11 -- 3/5:: I'm mystified
I figured that after almost 40 years listening to Jazz and Jazz-related music I should have at least a Best of Kenton...so I got it. And I don't get it. I mean, the playing is awesome. The brass players are giants. The fact that it doesn't really swing isn't a problem. I love Nelson Riddle, Bernard Herrmann...all kinds of Exotica. But is this Exotica? Jazz? Easy Listening? Labels don't matter, but this music seems like an only OK example of each thing that it hints at. For fans of low trombone writing this disc is way up there - faint praise, perhaps. But that's probably the main reason I'll keep it! Kenton fans, it's good you still have each other. But this has the distinction of being one of the least-played discs in my collection.

2001-09-17 -- 4/5:: These are not the best renditions Kenton is famous for...
A PRETTY GOOD CD, however, most of the songs are from 1945 to 47, and the renditions are not as good as the Kenton works of
the 1950's, e.g., The Peanut Vendor, etc.

David

2001-06-14 -- 5/5:: Stan is still the man.
Kenton at his finest. Good music to listen to. Not for everybody,but he helped the Four Freshman get started ,and Maynard Furgeson played with him. What a sound. Buy it.
