Benny Goodman takes the most ordinary songs and swings it like it was made to be that way. Cool! Enjoy!

  • A Canadian Columbia! Great find!

    Goodman had also recorded this a few years before for Victor; Helen Ward was his vocalist.

    This one doesn't seem to get much attention nowadays. I wonder if it's because the guitarist, Charlie Christian, is relegated to a short and rather undistinguished solo? There's no reason for the relative obscurity as it's a great side. Lionel Hampton's short solo is wonderful.

  • do you also have the version of ted heath? it features a trumpet solo. thanks

  • salo'

  • This song is used as part of the Sunset Boulevard Area Music loop at Disney's Hollywood Studios located at Walt Disney World. One of the best songs from that loop.

  • when was this record released? I love the vibraphone against the clarinet solo. thanks for posting.

  • Timeless!
