Soundie: It's Been a Long, Long Time

Picture of Stan Kenton

Today's Soundie is yet another one from Stan Kenton. "It's Been A Long, Long Time" was released to Panoram in December of 1945 and just one of the eighteen Soundies Kenton and His Band filmed through the years.  It features the beautiful June Christy on vocals along with the postwar lineup of the Band.

This Soundie was filmed very well and manages to capture Stan Kenton being Stan Kenton.  Enjoy!
