On to Benny Goodman's  1938 Carnegie Hall concert ! - "Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen", and
Gene Krupa doing Sing, Sing, Sing"  . would work well in the mix. |

The sound quality is fan-freakin-tastic, considering the recording tools of the day! You can hear every instrument, no problem. That's pretty amazing, don't you think? |

There are a number of recordings of what is generally considered Ellington's finest band (Rex Stewart, Ray Nance, Joe ‘Tricky Sam' Nanton, Juan Tizol, Barney Bigard, Johnny Hodges, Otto Hardwick, Ben Webster, Harry Carney, Jimmy Blanton, Sonny Greer, and of course Ellington on piano) in Fargo, North Dakota in 1940. It was a radio broadcast, so different versions will have the commercials. Pretty funny stuff. My favorite version of "Sepia Panorama"—yeah, he played this at a dance for a bunch of white folk. Balls. |

10-4. And if we're talking Ken Burns here, his Jazz series is very interesting. When it first aired on PBS, my attitude was, "Ho-hum," mistakenly thinking it was just going to focus on Dixieland and Satchmo. Very small-minded on my behalf, I must say. Years later my wife, ever thoughtful, came home with the VHS set from the library, thinking I'd be enthralled. I wasn't, but gave it a try since it was free, she'd gone to the trouble, and I thought, "What the heck."
I'm now in to my third viewing of this series, which you can steam from Netflix if you're a member. Needless to say, it's a fascinating look at the music, the artists, U.S. culture over the course of a couple of decades, etc., all done in the inimitable Ken Burns' style.

It's no secret how much I love jazz, going by my ratings, and I am always thrilled to hear "new" tunes on RP. Another great track!  |
