Ronnie Lang

A technically skilled participant and an excellent jazz improviser, Ronnie Lang has spent a lot of his profession in fairly anonymous configurations, employed in the studios. He began using Hoagy Carmichael’s Teens, Earl Spencer, Ike Carpenter and Skinnay Ennis (1947). Lang obtained some interest during his two stints with Les Brown’s Orchestra (1949-50 and 1953-56) and he documented a bit using the Dave Pell Octet within the mid-1950’s. Yet, in 1958 he became a occupied studio room musician in LA (often employed by Henry Mancini) and, although he offers since made an appearance on many information, the altoist continues to be mainly a nonsoloing section participant whose beautiful firmness is heard mainly within ensembles; a significant reduction to jazz. Ronnie Lang’s just sessions like a innovator were three game titles for Capitol in 1955 and a complete recording for Tops in 1956.
