This new Tantara CD from the Fall tour is literally the only released recordings of the Kenton orchestra during 1969. It not only fills a vital gap in the Kenton calendar, but is clearly an important step along the route that led to the formation of the 1970s full-time road band. Among the personnel are several players that would become key members, including Dick Shearer, lead trumpet Jim Kartchner, highnote specialist Dennis Noday, and saxophone/arranger Willie Maiden. But the player causing the biggest buzz around the bandstand wasn't one of these names at all, but a 23 year-old youngster just graduated from Stanford University. Tom Harrell had been playing trumpet with local groups around San Francisco since his early teens, but Kenton's was his first job with a name band. Tom brought with him all the solo skills and originality associated wjth an experienced professional, a talent Stan was quick to recognize. Harrell solos on no fewer than seven of the eleven titles on this program.
