This particular recording was recorded for an album Kenton did with a large string section and low brass in the late 1950's. It was reissued by Blue Note/Capitol on the "Kenton in Hi Fi" CD pictured above. The earlier recording is taken at a much more frantic pace. Both versions are classics on their own accords.
"Machito" was recorded on March 31,1946 by Stan Kenton and His Orchestra and was released in 1947 by Capitol Records as a 78 single, Capitol 408. The record was an early Latin jazz classic. "Machito" was composed by pianist Stan Kenton and arranger Pete Rugolo.
I have the Capitol 78, #408, and on the label it lists the composers of "Machito" as Stan Kenton and Pete Rugolo. The flip side of this 78 is "Collaboration", also composed by Stan Kenton and Pete Rugolo.
