Ken Nordine and the Fred Katz Group. “My Baby” Dot Records (1959)  Ken Nordine is a voice-over and recording artist whose deep, resonant voice was featured in many commercials and movie trailers. He attracted much wider attention when he recorded the aural vignettes on Word Jazz (Dot, 1957) and Son of Word Jazz (Dot, 1958).  His other albums in this vein feature Nordine’s narration over cool jazz by the Chico Hamilton jazz group, recording under the alias of Fred Katz, who was then the cellist with Hamilton’s quintet.
