Comments

There is another variation of MG-36082, which has the same jacket artwork as Mercury MG-20550 (mono, unreleased) and SR-60118 (stereo).

Inside The Groove

A companion album of MG-36115: Pete Rugolo's energic and experimental big-band sound, backed up with many famous ex-Kenton pals.

Personal Impression (and brief notes)

This LP, famous as its marvelous front cover design, is also famous as its music itself. Pete Rugolo, former Kenton-band chief arranger, here tries to arrange and conduct very experimental big-band sound, as we can also hear in his Columbia years.

Assorted musicians include very famous and talented west-coast guys including Maynard Ferguson, Frank Rosolino, Russ Freeman, Shelly Manne and many many more. A great sound.

The rest of the recordings from the same session will be appeared on MG-36115 “Out On A Limb”. And Stereo version can be heard on SR-60118 “Music From Out Of Space” and SR-60119 “Rhythm Meets Rugolo”.

Strictly Personal Rating (to what extent I could enjoy this album)

9 out of 10
