[pipicuervo94]

me pregunto quiénes fueron los 3 hdp con cáncer de oído que pusieron "No me gusta"

[Balallybabe]

Was this used in that film 'Tower of Terror' (or something to that effect)?!

[blackopsgangsta]

Who the fuck would dis like this!

[CarotWebMaster]

I would be very happy if Benny was make a version more long of the ending of the song, i mean at 7:04 to the end.

Maybe in another song or version ?

[theearthslave]

SUPER !!!

[ardilla861]

[RenatoPOA]

[99superjason]

go wild can't keep your feet on the ground can ya???? yeeehaa

[EmptyHighway1]

WILD !!!

[themasterhand12]

I love this song and i was born in 1999... :P

[DelroyMonjo]

I'd just like to know if it is "Sing, sing" or Swing. Swing. Swing"

Please

Can't stop dancin!

[thedragoonknight]

>:3 yes! This is the version I was looking for, it has the best pacing in my opinion.

[Tintenfix]

@thedragoonknight it's just this tiny bit faster than all the other versions, I totally agree with you here !

[cosg9531]

Who do many of the rock drummers consider to be their idol? The one, the only, Gene Krupa. Goody Benman knew he was hot when he got together with him.

[femoman]

@cosg9531 I dunno,I bet a bunch of them hold Buddy Rich in high regard. And so do I, along with Krupa. Krupa had his crazy freestyling and classic pose when playing, and Rick had his batshit crazy solos and sic=tricks that after several years of studying them, I still aren't that close to getting right.

[1947Rollo]

Jazz da sballo!

[Hannelle007]

Tak toto je naprosto super!

[ButterflyofOceans]

super !!!!!!

[deenomeeno]

I've always loved this!

[Xagerao]

I need dance, dance with this song!

[AJNorth]

As fine as this is, the absolute 'killer-diller' version of "Sing, Sing, Sing" was played by Goodman & his orchestra "the night jazz became respectable" - the Famous 1938 Carnegie Hall Concert. It runs just over twelve minutes, and includes a solo by Jess Stacey (with Krupa being remarkably restrained in the background) considered by many to be the finest two minutes of improvisational jazz piano ever captured by a microphone. They're right.

[nicelobsters]

Marathon swing- the "In a gadda da vida" of the 1930's

[konouchi]

Awesome!

[halottarnyek]

awesome!!!

[USRoute66]

That is Bobby Donaldson on drums, I wish this version would have been recorded in Stereophonic sound, but Capitol was not that far ahead yet.

[xcrazyninja]

its actaully a band cause an orchestra has like string instruments-violins,cellos, base, adn that sorta stuff but not gatars

[Healer2K]

I'm looking for a version of this from [I believe] 1936, Carnegie Hall. It just makes me nuts! lol! [I just noticed that jefff1963 mentions a 1938 Carnegie Hall version. Maybe we're thinking of the same one. Absolute perfection!]

[jefff1963]

If I was to be stranded on an island and had to choose one song to be stranded with this would be it (the 1938 Carnegie Hall recording though). Great rendition, never heard this one before, great photos too!

[GreekCallas]

Probably because it's a later one recorded in the early 50s for "The Benny Goodman Story."

[krupafan]

Me too! Carnegie Sing Sing Sing is THE song! I was thrilled when I visited the musical "Fosse" in NYC some years ago, they had Sing Sing Sing in it and copied it right down to Jess Stacys eternal solo.

[EdWatts]

@jefff1963

This is a good one, but I would be torn between "Sing, Sing, Sing" and "Channel One Suite" by Buddy Rich. Or "I Can't Get Started" by Al Hirt or Bunny Berigan. Or...

...Well, you get the idea; there was just so much good music written between 1900 and 1960. The classic rock era had its high points, too, but nothing to match the jazz and swing eras. Let's face it -- today's rap and hip-hop have no lasting value. Or talent. Or...

[BaxofDelights]

I love this piece. It just keeps going and going and reaches overdrive before staring again and then REALLY takes off into orbit. Krupa's drumming is beyond belief

[floridaconsulting]

Please post them. I am looking for one particular version for years!

[GreekCallas]

Ok, I've uploaded 2 more. I know I've got 1 or 2 more on CD somwhere and I may transfer 1 from an old LP record I got, but I'll have to find them.

[besnugg]

Thanks for this version...it's a bit different than the one I have, but still jammin'.

[GreekCallas]

I got about 5 different versions I'll eventually post. This is the newest one I have I think. I may have one from the 60s though.

[salty7121]

@GreekCallas thankyou so much for posting this. Benny Goodman is like the Duanne Allman of clarinet
