I've just listed some Artie Shaw and other swing clarinet sheet music on Etsy.

Man, Shaw makes that piece of ebony smoke like a cigar. :)

On the other end of the spectrum (kinda, because it's still improv) -- Jimi Hendrix, Jimmy Page, Roger Waters, Brian Jones (who also played clarinet when he was younger :-) )

@Darwinknowsbetter -- Yep, have noticed that. There is another one, dusting the stairs. Ridiculous, and racist, isn't it? This is only the abridged version of "Concert For Clarinet". The original was on two sides of an 78-rpm shellack, and it's over 6 minutes. -- Anyway, wonderful playing by Artie and the band. -- It's Billy Butterfield on trumpet, Johnny Guarnieri on piano and Nick Fatool on drums. The film itself is quite silly, but the music is great. Thanks for the good video quality.

Just been listening to Artie Shaw on Tony Palmer's magnificent 'All You Need is Love' history of popular music. Obviously a great man. Well worth getting Palmer's box set.

Last note... wtf... it was in TUNE. First time hearing him play. Mind = BLOWN.

Artie Shaw. All my life I've been moved by his music, and I'm 52. My father told me I was trying to whistle If I Love Again when I was 3. Sometimes Shaw's intensity brings tears to my eyes. He absolutely owned the clarinet. He was the very best musician who ever lived.

Artie Shaw = best big band leader
