So happy to have been born into the swing era...now 85. This music was simply the best and got to see many of the big bands. Great memories.

[@coenraadvanessen2311]

I never say that i was born in the wrong decade, but it is definitely a shame that most big bands have died out now.

My dad passed a couple weeks back...he loved this song and would sit at his organ and play along and sing...we wore out the battery on my ipad watching the big band videos...the rehab center was rockin all night long...the last program we watched was a Lawrence Welk reunion...dad would close his eyes and speak of dancing at the Hollywood bowl to big bands as they prepared to ship out...he served at Iwo Jima, Okinowa and Saipan and this is the music that brought them home...rest in peace dad

[@andyreet]

How can people not like this ? Benny is legend !!!! I'd like to hear the negative people play this well when your his age.

[@BradleyCEllisMusic]

The fact that Goodman keeps his eyes closed for the majority of this tune is astounding, as well as the articulation with the clarinet...

[@Ros_Singwolf]

Monstre!!!!!!!

[@donaldirvin1692]

Over his marvelous career of playing Benny did one thing, he got better. Played classical music and improved technique. What a beautiful gentleman and artist!

[@Poisson4147]

He was studying up until the day he died, trying to become even better than he already was (how is that possible?!). The obits said he was found in his studio with his clarinet at his side and sets of exercises on a music stand.

[@Clara_Datorino]

La musica del clarinetto di Benny Goodman è vera delizia per le mie orecchie. Anche la musica di Teddy Wilson al pianoforte mi piace molto. E' strano: ho visto in più video suonare questi due gentili signori assieme da giovani ed ora me li ritrovo qua sempre assieme ma ormai anziani. Questa cosa mi fa un certo effetto, ma e' confortante constatare che la vera amicizia può esistere e durare a lungo. Sono le ore diciotto.

[@wsv123wsv]

As always underestimeted: the Bassist. Hardly to see in the video but fortunately always to hear. The band would be nothing without him.

[@pyannaguy4361]

Agreed....those talented hands have to be durable as leather to keep plucking 4 of those plump perfect notes to one bar after another - with no frets on that long neck to guide them - and you're right: it's largely a thankless job! But how thin things would sound without that rich throbbing foundation!

[@CB-ck9dg]

Many of us do appreciate it. Should the bass amplification suddenly fail to work, then anybody would realize how much bass lines contribute to the music. What would be left would instantly loose most of its meaning (a common experience to those who played in - or just attended reharsals of - ill-equipped juvenile bands). And a well-conceived bass line is as much a treat to the ears as it is any phrase from any other instrument.

C'est une opinion toute personnelle, bien sûr....mais j'y crois " dur comme fer " J'espère que vous me comprenez : à 77 ans, un vieux musicien comme moi a entendu pas mal de choses ....et j'ai toujours une bonne oreille .

[@robkunkel8833]

He practiced an hour a day, even at that age. I never really listened to him until I took a second look at the clarinet as a shedding clarinet player at 75. Goodman has a light airy touch. Like Bill Evans or this guy on piano.

I need to correct my spelling, on my previous comment.I love Benny Goodman as a great musician, and I admire his talent, not only to play the clarinet, but, also his talent for writing great music

[@dackelmommy]

This is from the era when Benny and I saw the same orthopedic surgeon, in NYC, Dr. Frank Stinchfield. We happened to be there the same day, with Benny's appointment right before mine. As Dr. Stinchfield knew I was heading to college to major in clarinet, he told Benny he should stay to meet me. Dr. Stinchfield's quote, "Benny Goodman was JUST sitting in the chair you are now sitting upon. He doesn't like children, and went out the back door, quickly, so you didn't see him in the waiting room." Needless to say, I was very sad. I should have started to dislike him for being unkind, however, I still love him!!

[@_LetsGoBrandon]

Awww... Thats kind of a bleh story 😂 kinda cool you had a connection to a legend, kinda messed up the legend didn't want a connection with you. NOW.... Time to put a smiley face on the end of this story - go out and show the world what you got and make it big, kid... And when the day comes that a kid like you were wants to meet you, you can give him a better story than you had, and pass on the story you had to him so he knows the meaning of the event. 😎👍

I don't think it matters whether he was 'King of Swing' or not, he was a great jazz player, hero of my youth,, who attracted the cream of his generation as co-artists. Teddy Wilson was also one of my favourite pianists - style, class, technique, touch, everything.
