Description: Leith Stevens' All Stars / Shorty Rogers and His OrchestraJAZZ THEMES FROM TWO GREAT MOVIES BY LEITH STEVENS: THE WILD ONE / PRIVATE HELL 36 Personnel: Maynard Ferguson, John Graas, Milt Bernhart, Jimmy Knepper, Bob Enevoldsen, Bud Shank, Herb Geller, Sal Franzella, Bill Holman, Bill Perkins, Jimmy Giuffre, Bob Cooper, Bob Gordon, Russ Freeman, Lou Levy Reference: FSRCD 2201 The music on this CD contains the celebrated jazz scores Leith Stevens wrote for "The Wild One" in 1953 and "Private Hell 36" in 1954. The idea behind putting both scores together on one disc is to offer all this exciting music originally issued on three different records. Stevens' use of progressive jazz created an innovation in film-music history and Stevens was very particular about choosing the right jazz musicians to work on his scores. For these movies he used the interpretative skill of the oustanding young trumpeter and conductor Shorty Rogers. Shorty's collaboration with Steven in scoring films produced some of the most exciting background music of the time. Four of the jukebox tunes from "The Wild One" were first recorded by Shorty's own 19-piece band and issued on a 7-inch single by RCA Victor, still with the original title "Hot Blood". These large orchestra tracks were the first recordings of its genre appearing in a movie, and the beginning of a jazz tendency in dramatic films. Tracklisting: The Wild One01.
