In the late 40’s, Mr. Kenton, suffering from periods of exhaustion, broke up his band several times. Once, after going through analysis and finding it “such a thrilling, rewarding thing,” he decided to go to premed school in preparation for becoming a psychiatrist. He registered at a school, changed his mind, and reorganized his band. On another occasion, he announced his retirement from music because, “I thought I’d seen everything and said everything I’d planned to say in music.”
“That lasted about three months,” he said, “and I almost went nuts.”
I love doing research papers on this man.
