Chuck Carter on Baritone Saxophone. This was recorded with a personal camcorder during a concert in Copenhagen, 1972, and was never produced commercially.
This is great. I attended the Stan Kenton Jazz Clinic at Towson State in 1974 and 1975. I learned so much. The 1st year I was in Lou Marini's Band. The 2nd year I was in Jim Wilder's Band. I also got to take lessons from Roy Reynold the 2nd year. I lent Roy my clarinet which he played on combo night. He played "Sweet Georgia Brown" on it.
I started listening to The Stan Kenton Orchestra in 1948 when I was a h.s. senior. I've had the pleasure of seeing his bands 13 times, the last time was at Central College in Pella, Iowa. The way he interwove the various sections was far ahead of everyone else. What he did in the 50's is now being done quite regularly. Bob Curry Sr.
Chuck Carter is in Beast Mode!! A truly great player in his own right!!! A magnificent chart on Gershwin who was a truly great musical Genius What a band!!!!
Stan Kenton- One of the most elegant, intelligent innovators in modern music. The fact that some of his masterpieces still remain "controversial" is an excellent sign of that. Viva Innovation in modern music!
I still listen to Stan's "Progressive" orchestras from the 50's and 60's and they are STILL ahead of their time.. Never heard more emotional and evocative music than made by these fabulous orchestras!
excellent comments!! he was and will always will stand for jazz really is!!! his bands pushed the envelope his charts are still undated!!!!!! Oh by the way the trombone interplay w/Chuck Carter nice!!
This is the good stuff! There is nothing like some good big band music! With Lots of Trombones, Trumpets, and a whole warehouse full of Saxophones, String bases, and Drums! WOW What a sound!!
Wow..😎...Chuck Carter just nails this...truly an awsome Bari Sax sound...wish I had a Bari Sax in my collection...played one in high school...so glad I had that opportunity....
I have vinyl LP of "Kenton in HI-FI" with greatest trombone solo ever recorded (in my opinion).."Intermission Riff" with Carl Fontana doing the honors. It's now available on CD.
The great break-through in jazz came in when this man Kenton transformed the rut it had got into and shook-up the whole scene. THIS is jazz said Kenton, this is where we're going.. Join us or get left behind. And so Jerry and Shorty did just that, and a whole new and wonderful jazz scene emerged which gave a satisfaction undreamed of before.
Yes, chum, wonderful jazz - but you've missed the point altogether, haven't you? KENTON changed the thrust of jazz in the 1940's, way before Mr Rogers.
I might dispute the recording method as 'personal camcorder' with a 3 camera set up certainly did not exist in 1972 ... but none the less .. this is an awesome piece of tunage! Thanks for posting ...
This recording, but in terrific full-bodied stereo, with Carter on bari, is available on a great CD that includes Send In the Clowns, Body and Soul, and My Funny Valentine, and the CD's title song: Street of Dreams. If you liked this, buy Street of Dreams.
This is great but you should hear his work with the extraordinary John Von Ohlen/Steve Allee big band! Seek out out this side: Downtown Blues, John Von Ohlen - Chuck Carter - Steve Allee Big Bands (originally released as 'Live' on a private label), SeaBreeze Jazz SB-2095. The CD is killer!
Ditto, and after you check out that big band... get some of the Blue Wisp Big Band, John Von Ohlen (The Baron) on drums... VO started this band after he left Indy and went to Cincy.
I don't know if I've ever heard a better Bari solo
One of the Greats on Bari Sax.

Stan Kenton was far ahead of his time. He came up with This Modern World and City of Glass back in 1950!! Classic progressive jazz.

Sure was a pleasure being on this band!! I hadn't seen this one before. Chuck was such a monster.
Mike Vax Did you ever hear of Bob Foutz, maybe went but Robert Foutz? He was supposed to play for Stan Kenton.
Yes he was. And so were you ! Enjoyed playing behind you in St.Louis.
sublime.
Fan-tastic. The whole show captured beautifully.

Kenton live at The Blue Note, Chicago, 1960's..... I was there and will never forget it, never.

Recorded with a personal camcorder?...In 1972?...With all those edits and the clear image and sound?....Hmmmmmmmm....Great music though.
Hard to believe that this was recorded with a personal camcorder, what with all the different camera angles and all..
It’s a professional tv studio camera.
@@JulianDiaz-Tpt only one camera?
@@twistedtrails8128 more than one obviously.
@@JulianDiaz-Tpt three
That's like saying, "Is it my imagination or was that Chuck Norris roundhouse kick a little sloppy?"
Mixing the recomposing of Bill Russo
It had to be more than one camera.
Gerry Blanchard and a
Is it my imagination or were the trumpets with the Harmons out of tune?
Its really your imagination! Why don't you try it some time, you will learn something!
Carter is no Chaloff terrible tone but Kenton is one of my favortes
charles sullivan terrible tone? Really?
