The Wall Of Sound
Stan Kenton and his orchestra play the title song in this soundie.
Soundies were short films, about three minutes in length. The were meant to be played on a machine called a Mills Panoram, a video jukebox that was typically to be found in bars, lounges, and similar venues. You put a dime in and got a performance from the ten on the machine. The movies would be changed weekly, and from 1940 through 1946, Mills and other companies produced more than two thousand soundies.
My particular jazz maven friend referred to Kenton as 'the wall of sound', a tune backed by a very loud brass section in a call and reprise pattern. Here it starts out with Kenton on the piano and his bass fiddle player in a duet, with the brass getting them a deafening rest.
