My morning was made the moment I saw the title of the notes.

Great, great stuff... further opening one's eyes to the world of Capitol Records.

It's High Time (RCA) that I looked over my own modest inventory of Kenton and blasted some to the neighbors.

I have the Cal Tjader West Side Story in iTunes, but not the Kenton for some reason. I know I have the Kenton CD somewhere. (maybe in DR George's garage?)

I was first introduced to Stan Kenton when he played for a Cybill Shepherd album.

Good morning, all!!

I slept late.  For the past two days I have been dragging through the day, and i needed to sleep. I had a very strange dream about being in a hotel/hostel/dormitory in Austin, TX although I now have no memory of why the dream placed me there.  A concert entrepreneur for whom I once wrote arrangements put in an appearance as well.  And there was a music store and an LP.

This morning, I received a creepy email from one Frank Anderson who claimed he'd seen me on Facebook and wanted to get to know me.  This is a first.

Thanks, Frank. No, thanks.

Morning, all! Happiest of birthdays to JRand & Jose!

Not familiar with the Kenton albums. Will have to take a look for 'em. I have a couple of jazz West Side Stories (Richie Cole's and Oscar Peterson's). Jazz was never really my "thing," but I've enjoyed many albums featuring alternate takes on scores that I loved.
