During his long career as a band-leader, Stan Kenton played often in the most famous and prestigious concert halls across the world. From the Music Center in Los Angeles, to Carnegie Hall in New York; from the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam, to the Festival Hall in London, he really played them all. Yet, if there was one place Stan considered home, it was a simple ballroom in Balboa Beach, California. This recording is both a quintessential example of Kenton, his band and it's awesome power during this period and of Wally Heider's exceptional engineering talent he would later become famed for. Striking a perfect balance between clarity, warmth, and depth, Heider seamlessly captures here the fine jazz arrangements by Johnny Richards and Bill Holman. Recorded at The Rendezvous Ballroom, Balboa Beach, California in 1958, captured in incredible detail by the legendary Wally Heider and available for the first time on CD.
