HEP Records presents this 1974 second volume of collected works from American jazz bandleader and bass saxophonist Boyd Raeburn and his Orchestra, entitled On The Air.

Raeburn’s Orchestra, which was active c. 1944-1947, performed arrangements that were often comparable to those used by Woody Herman and the “progressive jazz” of Stan Kenton during the same period. The compositions arranged by George Handy were the most contemporary, utilizing dissonance somewhat in the manner of Igor Stravinsky. Johnny Richards joined in 1947, following Handy and stayed for a year writing 50 compositions.
