Swinging Swede Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 Artie Shaw and His Orchestra (1938) Another movie short with Shaw's great late 30s orchestra. But this was recorded one month before both Georgie Auld and Buddy Rich joined (it's Cliff Leeman on drums). They perform Nightmare, Begin the Beguine, Let's Stop The Clock, Non-Stop Flight and Prosschai. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swinging Swede Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 More from The King of Swing: Benny Goodman - Medley: I've Got A Heartful of Music/Avalon/House Hop (1937) More from the Krupa/James band, plus the quartet with Lionel Hampton and Teddy Wilson mixed in too! Benny Goodman, Lionel Hampton, Mel Powell - Stealin' Apples (1947) This is from a funny Danny Kaye film I've seen on TV a couple of times. Benny Goodman plays a classical musician who gets accustomed to jazz improvisation quickly to say the least. In the clip you can also see Louis Armstrong, Tommy Dorsey and Charlie Barnet, but they aren't playing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
