WITH PETE RUGOLO AND HIS ORCHESTRA

IN THE LAND OF HI-FI / WEST SIDE

Description:
In 1956, Patti Page, just 30, was at the top of her fame. She had already collected nine gold records for million selling popular singles, and she was the star of the The Big Record, one of the very few straight musical TV shows on the air. With these recordings with Pete Rugolo she made a radical departure into jazz singing. Rugolo was one of the most skilled and adventurous arrangers of modern sounds in jazz, well known for his long and remarkable association with Stan Kenton's progressive band. He assembled two different settings for these sessions. On most sides he used a large orchestra, studded with such soloists as Bob Cooper, Bud Shank, Georgie Auld, and Pete Candoli. On others he worked with smaller groups, replete with some fine solos by Don Fagerquist, Paul Horn, Larry Bunker or Fred Katz. Throughout, Rugolo provided the perfect colorful, vivid orchestrations that make these Patti Page performances among the most outstanding of her career. Arrangements by Pete Rugolo with collaborations by Marty Paich, Bill Holman and Shorty Rogers.
