Johnny Richards

Johnny Richards (November 2, 1911 – October 7, 1968) was a jazz arranger and composer in the mid-20th century United States. He was a pivotal arranger for some of the more adventurous, boisterous Stan Kenton big band performances on recordings in the 1950s and early 1960s: the Cuban Fire! and Kenton's West Side Story are probably the best known of those albums.
