Music Designed To Raise The Heatbeat And Pulse. That Might Be Offered As A Descripton Of The Distinctive Studio Work Performed By The Late Ted Heath Who'd Be 107 D 18 March '69 . Heath Was Pumping Out His Provocative Arrangements On The Command And London Labels During The Era When Stereo Was A Consumer Novelty And Big Band Jazz Was A Favorite Genre For Demonstrating Audio Channel Separation. Critics Sometimes Said This Manner Of Recording Was A Gimmick That Served Mainly To Sell Stereo Albums. The Time Frame Was Roughly 1958 Through 1962. FM Radio Was Emerging From It's Petri Dish During This Period. It Sounds Quaint Today But In 1961 Or '62 FM Was The Land Of So-Called "good Music". And Ted Heath's Johnny One Note From Babes In Arms Was Often Heard In The Major Cities On The "good Music Frequencies". It Was Sometimes Chosen As A Stirring Way To Begin A New Hour Of Programming Fresh Out Of The Local Or Network Newscast. Not Exactly Intended For Candlelight Dining This Jazz Style Was Noted For It's Verve And Roller Coaster Momentum. A Reviewer Might Find It Difficult To Single Out Any One Album Track As Most Representative Of Ted Heath. But Surely Nothing He Ever Recorded Was More Deliberate Or Dynamic Than Johnny One Note.

Music designed to raise the heatbeat and pulse. That might be offered as a descripton of the distinctive studio work performed by the late Ted Heath, who'd be 107 (d 18 March '69).
Heath was pumping out his provocative arrangements on the Command and London labels during the era when stereo was a consumer novelty and big band jazz was a favorite genre for demonstrating audio channel separation. Critics sometimes said this manner of recording was a gimmick that served mainly to sell stereo albums. The time frame was roughly 1958 through 1962.
FM radio was emerging from it's petri dish during this period. It sounds quaint today, but in 1961 or '62, FM was the land of so-called "good music". And Ted Heath's Johnny One Note (from Babes in Arms) was often heard in the major cities on the "good music frequencies". It was sometimes chosen as a stirring way to begin a new hour of programming, fresh out of the local or network newscast.
Not exactly intended for candlelight dining, this jazz style was noted for it's verve and roller coaster momentum. A reviewer might find it difficult to single out any one album track as most representative of Ted Heath. But surely, nothing he ever recorded was more deliberate or dynamic than Johnny One Note.
