THIS TUNE WITH QUINE DAVIES ON SAX AND VON OHLEN HE CUTS OF THE BAND 3 TIMES J- A- CH. AND HERD THAT ENDING 20 TIMES OVER AND I CRIED LONG TIME AFTER lcordesius@hotmail.com
When I heard him in the early 50's he was so HIP and so far ahead of everyone! I can't imagine life on the road ... many days and nights on a Bus. Some life for Artists...
I had the pleasure of seeing this band (and attending his camps) so many times. Truly the biggest influence in high school/college "Jazz Education Movement" and the 'master of polytonality. Thanks to all for posting...
@vertitatis About three months after the "Live at Redlands" album was recorded, the band was playing in Cleveland and Efram abruptly informed Stan that he was leaving the band effective immediately. He had met a girl in Cleveland and was getting married. About a year later, Stan's business office got a strange letter from the girl he married. She wanted to know if they had heard from Efram. He had disappeared shortly after the wedding and she had no idea where he was.
@vertitatis Your comment to nealbfinn reminded me that waayyy back in the 1950s or 1960s Kenton was quoted as saying that maybe he should have been a psychiatrist. Well, I'd guess that being a band leader you have to be a psychologist at the very least.
Most of Ken Hanna's pieces had this romantic sort of feeling - even with movement, they tended toward romantiscism - not a bad thing at all. This one is pretty much through composed IMO and the bones play some dissonant chords at times that seem to fit somehow. Intersting piece.
