Review
In 1955 with Mel Lewis on drums and Bill Holman as chief arranger, the Stan Kenton Orchestra swung harder that it ever had or would again. TO celebrate the high caliber of jazz in the band, Kenton booked a Chicago studio in July to document Holman's charts and the great solo work of Charlie Mariano, Bill Perkins, Sam Noto and Carl Fontana.
The aptly named Contemporary Concept, which also included Gerry Mulligan's Limelight is the result. Added to the original album are two more tracks from the session, Stan Kenton's Sunset Tower and Gene Roland's Opus In Chartreuse as well as two more Roland opuses. This milestone in Kenton's recording career is on CD for the first time.
