Yeah, this one's quite a listen -...You bet. :)<br /><br />Yeah, this one's quite a listen - got a couple of the track here (on the 12" version) on 78 that weren't included on the original 10" version. The upcoming "Kentonfest" will be a musical journey, for sure - covering mainly his work on Capitol from 1943-1947, but also some of his work on Decca from 1942.Mark a.k.a.

This album, I must say, is one of my all time personal favorites.By Mark Betcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12284668918367327017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5271453857178906898.post-91343480314790811362013-09-14T13:09:31.560-07:002013-09-14T13:09:31.560-07:00This must be a later 12" version.
I happened...This must be a later 12" version.<br /><br />I happened to snag the original 10" LP (was also released as a 4 record 78rpm album set) about a month before your blog post here! All recordings are indeed from late 1947, just before the 2nd recording ban of the 1940's - stratospheric stuff that was decades ahead of its time.<br /><br />Came across this post in doing a bit of research, as I plan on holding a 60 side "Kentonfest" at my YouTube channel in the coming weeks & months and this entire album (my 10" copy - 8 sides) will be part of it.<br /><br />You may have heard Tink mention me in some of her YouTube videos - she refers to me simply as "Swing Man". ;)Mark a.k.a.
