Not absolutely certain, but I think the man with the trombone solo is my great uncle Ben Pickering. He played with Rollini and the timeframe is about right. I have a ton of old photos, including one that is autographed, of Adrian Rollini.
Love this version, the ol' tiger changed his stripes musically through the years, listen to Gus Arheim and this version both equally enjoyable, this sax solo is a knockout.
Man, I just can't tell if that's Rollini or not...Is that Jerry Colonna at the 1:17 mark? Trombonist on the left????
I have a clip of Freddie Rich with Berigan clearly visable(and soloing) but can't tell here...except good eye on Rich. Same Tenor guy on the clip I have up as well
It is Fred Rich's Orchestra...... Look for Jerry Colonna and Bunny Berigan.

Rollini is clearly sitting at the extreme left of the sax section playing the enormous bass saxaphone.

"you'll see"...but you won't hear! :-/
Tenor soloist is Hank Ross, then on staff at CBS (where Rich worked). Fine player who didn't get to make many records.
Colonna was a CBS staff player at the time, too, so that very well might be him.
Too bad about dub quality, but most of this stuff is buried so deep it probably won't ever get any better.

Looks like Berigan trumpet, top right. Leader is Fred Rich if I'm not mistaken. Thanks.
