letra de artistry in rhythm (live from the las vegas tropicana) - stan kenton

[intro]
i think that it’s only fair and proper that we tell you people
here at the tropicana room that, uh
we have asked you here this evening under desperate circumstances
we are endeavoring to make an album that will sell
we have tried everything from playing music backwards, forwards
we’ve played three tunes at a time
simultaneously, getting all kinds of polytonal effects
we’ve gotten so progressive that we went off of the end
and had to go back around and jump on again
we’ve tried every sort of thing
we even tried to make rock and roll records
but, uh, somehow that smells too when we do it
so as i said, uh, we feel that it’s up to you people
if you approve of this music this evening it will show on the record
and, uh, even beyond the music and the glow of positivetivity
that’s a good word
will dominate over the, uh, negative aspect
that sometimes is a part of what so many critics hold in regard to our music
we, uh, are going to start this evening with the current version of
“artistry in rhythm”
we have played this thing backwards, forwards
uh, it’s been done as a rhumba, as a tango
we’ve tried it as a march
we’ve plugged it every possible way
so if you don’t mind, let’s start plugging it again here
this is the current version here in las vegas of, uh, “artistry in rhythm”
[instrumental]

[outro]
thank you very much
thank you
