As much as the press canonized great East Coast virtuosos, the history books left out hw much of a hotbed Stan Kenton's band was for everything from Boss Nova to late night TV Jazz bands to Crime Jazz movie scores. Nearly every one of these culural pehnoms came from Kenton's band, and Laurindo is ground zero for America's interest in Bossa Nova (although contrarian armchair scholars might suggest the Woody Herman/Charlie Byrd connection).
