ghost of miles Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 His centennial's coming up at the end of the month. I've got a Night Lights show in the pipeline that covers his foray into bop (1948-49)...lots of Wardell Gray in that one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alocispepraluger102 Posted May 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 kcr is now working through the selected discography chronologically. they are currently to august 1931, all as a sideman. to call this period prolific would be a gross understatement. benny must have lived, and slept, in recording studios.

BillF Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 His centennial's coming up at the end of the month. I've got a Night Lights show in the pipeline that covers his foray into bop (1948-49)...lots of Wardell Gray in that one! Very much like Benny's bop phase - and Charlie Barnet's, too. Have many of those tracks on a couple of Capitol albums which I bought a dozen years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
