Mi Burrito

Mi Burrito is a big band arrangement by Raymond Harry Brown, copyrighted in 1973, written for the Stan Kenton Orchestra while Brown was a member (circa Sept. 1971 – Nov. 1972).[1]

Of the 96 big band arrangements submitted to Soviet Censors in preparation for 1976 One O'Clock Lab Band Concert Tour of the Soviet Union, Mi Burrito was one of two that were prohibited. Soviet officials gave no explanation. The One O'Clock, without announcing the titles, performed both — Mi Burrito and St. Thomas (arranged by Gene Glover) — live via satellite from Moscow on NBC on July 4, 1976.[2]
