Stan Kenton

Stan Kenton was a jazz pianist during the early to mid 1900s. Kenton was signed to Capital Records in 1943 but before that he started his own orchestra "Artistry in Rhythm". As his career progressed he became a very accomplished musician winning multiple Grammy  Awards. After listening to a few songs I really liked Eager Beaver but during my research Mama Sang a Song came up and I couldnt get into it i only listened to about 30 seconds of it. below is the eager beaver link from youtube
