This performance was less than a year before Benny Goodman died. It is very pleasant and touching to see these older couples listening and dancing to the music they grew up with. They look like they were having such a good time. Wish I was there...
I saw this program when it was first broadcast, had to pinch myself when I realized "Holy s*, it's 1985 and I'm watching the Benny Goodman band live and in full gallop!" If only we'd been able to hear Shaw, Miller, and the Dorseys under the same circumstances ... Reportedly this program was to test out the band for a new series of concerts. But as you noted, we lost him shortly afterwards.
I saw Benny in about 1985. He had them turn the sound system off, saying "If you can't hear, come down front. But you'll be able to hear. We play loud enough for dancing, that's the whole point. Feel free to dance if you want, that's what this music is for." Few danced but we could hear and he played beautifully.
Can't stop watching this video. If this performance isn't perfection, it is as close as you can get. It gives me mental images of that generation...The Greatest Generation.
How many people thought Benny Goodman, if they had even heard of him, was some kind of shooting star who faded out in the 1940's? No, he was swinging and creative right up to the end of his life. And don't let anyone think of this music as a nostalgia trip. It is timeless - and there are countless young people out there still doing it.
Gladdens my heart to hear Benny playing music he made popular 50 years prior...Just shows that great music does not age. 👍 Benny passed away a year after this was recorded.
Watched this video for maybe my 1000th time. I am still hearing wonderful notes and sounds that tell me what the Greatest Generation was all about. MY PARENTS!!! Just Fantastic!!!
This man and a few other orchestra leaders are what I thought were the "end of the world", when I first heard them play back in the day. The incomparable Benny Goodman, was the man who got folk's feet to tapping across the globe. I can't praise him highly enough. Truly a great guy .
Just fabulous - how wonderful to see genius masquerading as a humble band leader. How civilised the world was back then - and the musicians could all play - having studied for 20 years to get to this level of skill. Wonderful music - wonderful era.
I love this video clip. Just look at those grandmas and grandpas enjoying themselves. It looks like they are still in their 20s. I can't see myself dancing to contemporary music when I am at the they are now. How disappointing. Maybe there a few exceptions. I'm keen to hear from those who'll be dancing to contemporary popular music in their over 50s. The senior with lady in green looks like Sir Alex Ferguson. They are my favorite couple in the room.
My wife and I have danced all our lives (now 71 y/o). Lucky enough to catch some big bands in the 60s and 70s now they seem to be mostly gone. Now we dance to country western music at least once a week with the same 2-step we love and a little 'jitterbug' thrown in. Still lots of great dancing here in Arizona, especially during the winter when all us 'snowbirds' fill the bars and halls. We are lucky!
The joy he has performing this is something special, and that smile at the end says it all. Enough to bring a tear of joy to your eye as I’m sure this takes him back to the glory days. Thank you for sharing!
louis bellson was terrific and also a very nice man....one of benny's many tunes from the goodman 'book'-he has to be remembering back to the old days & is getting a genuine kick out of seeing people enjoying the music & dancing....
This is when America was AMERICA! What a great musician, what a great band leader! This music was made for moving the feet! The wife and I, on a 10 hour road trip, after 7 hours listening to Series 40's Junction realize there was no sappy sad music to bog you down... since then huge fan of this music ! Bring Back swing!
Louis Bellson must always always be included in any discussion of great Jazz drummers ! He invented the double bass drum while with Duke Ellington's orchestra.
Ah yes. This music dates from an era before tech wizardey manipulated the finished sound. In tose days if a musician couldn't play well enough, he didn't eat.
benny goodman otra de las grandes orquestas..que nos emocionaba escucharla y bailar con sus interpretaciones...que belleza...que ritmo que alegria..volver a recordar es volver a vivir
The great Benny, first heard him about '59 when a friend of mine gave me Benny at Carnegie Hall, played it to destruction, bought it again LP style, still have it, then, the holy of holys, Benny's attic find of the original, non-edited full concert, Jesus, a dead sea scrolls equivalent, if you are reading this then you are a fan of music, real music, unfortunately I have lost my e-mail connection so. sorry if I do not reply
I love how both Benny and the drummer look so happy while they are playing. You don't see that nowadays with this shit people call music. Today, there is no such thing as "in tune".
It is so great that all these masters playing so always so great till their last years. Benny Goodman, Teddy Wilson started their career in the 1930s and they bring so much joy to all people till their last year's in the 1980s.
Prawdziwym geniuszem wśród liderów orkiestry w muzyce jazzowej był niezrównany Benny Goodman. Jego muzyka sprawiła, że ludzie się poruszali, nawet jeśli byli niepełnosprawni. Po prostu pokochałam go z powodu jego muzycznej wielkości i niezłomnej ludzkości, przychodzącego w czasie, gdy nie było zbyt wielu nagród lub korzyści z bycia takim zainteresowanym. Dzisiaj dziękuję Absolut melodyjny nieskończenie piękny. Szkoda,że bezpowrotnie. To zostało wykonane na rok przed śmiercią.. Katalina
While his band was great, his small group of Goodman, Krupa, Wilson and Hampton, was unbelievable! Of all the other small groups back then, they were the best...
Toujours un grand moment de plaisir d'écouter Mr Goodman ... Comment peut-il en être autrement et comment faire pour pouvoir danser au lieu de regarder et d'écouter ??? Je n'ai jamais compris !! Moi, quand j'entends cette musique, je me mets à fondre et je reste paralysé !!!
Oh My..to see Goodman while listening to him..wonderful. See those shoulders go..and his legs move!! He really lived his music. I read his biography..good read!! Is that Louis Belson on drums??? With a very bad hair piece..I saw Louis Belson backing Tony Bennett at the Chevron Silver Spade Room in Sydney when I was 18..I was sitting so close to Tony Bennett I could have touched him!! Belson was, of course, terrific!. And Mr Bennett..(am I spelling his name correctly??) was sublime!! Americans have always had the best musos, singers... and the most interesting!! Good on you guys!!
Even towards the end of his life, Benny sounded just as good as he did in the 1930s...He passed away in June of 86; just about nine months after this show...probably one of his very last if not the last I imagine.
This clip so touching on many levels. Not only was this one of Goodman's last performances but look at the crowd. All these gray haired and bald men with their wives of many years dancing and enjoying themselves as if time had never changed. I find that beautiful.
Sorry but you're wrong. Many fine bands since and still going. Check out BBC Big Band, Sid Laurence and lots of great European bands like Thilo Wolf. Many others of course, these only a few examples.
Wilson Mcdade That's BG's famous theme song, "Let's Dance". It was actually written as theme and station break music for the "Let's Dance" radio program (Dec. 1934 - April/May 1935), when Benny and his band were completely unknown, and they shared the 3-hour weekly Saturday night radio extravaganza with two other bands. It was that radio series people heard from coast to coast that gave them a taste of what was coming. The series was abruptly cancelled, so to keep the band together it was given a 1 month stand in LA, and they spent a month working their way there doing 1-nighters. But hipper crowds in LA had heard the radio show & the band, and on August 21, 1935, when BG was ready to hang it up from the dismal receptions he and the band got the whole trip west, the crowd at the Palomar Ballroom roared it's approval and the Swing Era was underway. Sure, swing had been around for a couple years pretty much in Chicago and New York and today we'd call it "underground" - as in, not part of the consciousness of the general (white) public YET. But the Palomar gig was stretched from one month to two, and then it was on to another hastily arranged booking in Chicago, for another one month stand at the Congress Hotel beginning in October. They ended up being there for six months, where they really settled into becoming the well-oiled machine called the Benny Goodman Orchestra, playing nightly for dancing and broadcasting many times a week. Virtually every broadcast began with "Let's Dance", and the opening strains of it were soon recognized by millions, everywhere all over the country. By mid 1936 they were back in NYC, utterly dominating the world of popular music, and the rest was, as they say, history.
A very good overview of Benny Goodman and the advent of swing. The terms "white people and white audiences" are problematic, however. Where would jazz be ( and I include bebop) without white audiences? Stanley Crouch mentioned that the young Wynton Marsalis knew next to nothing about jazz when he came out of New Orleans. Sadly, many jazz enthusiasts are stuck with the Ken Burns school of veneration of the black musician to the exclusion of others. The politics of skin.
le monde reste plein de vieux dinosaures : il faut les laisser vivre, à défaut de pouvoir les exhiber dans un musée . Où serait le jazz sans le public blanc ? La question ne pose même pas parce qu'il n'en a pas été ainsi, et lorsque les Bancs s'y sont mis franchement , il ne faut quand même pas oublier que c'est par imitation des orchestres noirs , et puis, ils ont fait semblant d'oublier les origines de cette musique / Ils ont tenté de se l'approprier . C'est pourquoi les musiciens noirs furent interdits dans les orchestres blancs ; ils ont essayé d'éradiquer la paternité de la musique noire comme ils ont éradiqué les Indiens !!! Heureusement , certains Blancs gardèrent les yeux ouverts et c'est Benny Goodman lui-même qui, le premier osa intégrer dans sa petite formation de base des gens comme Teddy Wilson suivi peu de temps après par Lionel Hampton : 2 grands musiciens , qui continuèrent, comme d'habitude, à jouer avec leur mains et pas avec leur peau !!! et sur ce : VIVE BENNY GOODMAN : un très grand musicien, .....et aussi un humaniste .....
@@bblegacy The melody to "Let's Dance" was taken from Carl Maria von Weber's 1819 composition _Aufforderung zum Tanz_ , in English "Invitation to the Dance". Goodman was also a master of classical music so using von Weber as his inspiration came naturally.
Simplemente, y en una palabra ; EXTRAORDINARIO. Gracias Maestro por brindarnos tan hermosas interpretaciones. Los arreglos, la calidad de los solistas logran una magia con una orquesta muy bien afiatada. Saludos desde Chile ,donde nos brindo una presentacion inolvidable hace ya varios lustros.
I'm not certain but I think Benny wrote this song. If you find the Harry James version on here you will also see a great arrangement, but somehow this one is the best for me; it has the right tempo - the tension between the beats that makes it so swinging. Harry's version is more up-beat bebop in my opinion.
Benny Goodman 1985 at The New York Marriott Marquis th-cam.com/play/PLrPaVntmR59tGQC-IYWFXfi1yoDxyTk9k.html
The best music of the USA.
Geweldig🎉🎉
Opened (as usual) with "Let’s Dance", followed by "Don’t Be That Way". Pure GOLD!!!
My Mom and dad's music.....but I don't care whether you are 12 or 82.....It don't get no better!!!!
Spot on. I'm 82 on 2nd Sept . Grew up with this and still play drums.
I notice a few people gave this the thumbs down ?? Why 😬 .. Benny playing one of his wonderful numbers from the early 1930s is sheer magic 👍🏼!!
This performance was less than a year before Benny Goodman died. It is very pleasant and touching to see these older couples listening and dancing to the music they grew up with.
They look like they were having such a good time. Wish I was there...
I saw this program when it was first broadcast, had to pinch myself when I realized "Holy s*, it's 1985 and I'm watching the Benny Goodman band live and in full gallop!" If only we'd been able to hear Shaw, Miller, and the Dorseys under the same circumstances ...
Reportedly this program was to test out the band for a new series of concerts. But as you noted, we lost him shortly afterwards.
We shall never see the likes of this kind of talent in our time again,at least here on earth.
I saw Benny in about 1985. He had them turn the sound system off, saying "If you can't hear, come down front. But you'll be able to hear. We play loud enough for dancing, that's the whole point. Feel free to dance if you want, that's what this music is for." Few danced but we could hear and he played beautifully.
Fabulous, flawless, sophisticated music of the big band era. It will never be duplicated.
this was a gem in his Carnegie hall concert in 1938 !!!
AMAZING!!! Just look at the way he still FEELS the music!!! Great genius, great man indeed.
Can't stop watching this video. If this performance isn't perfection, it is as close as you can get. It gives me mental images of that generation...The Greatest Generation.
I could not have said it better myself, the performance and music is a manifestation of "The Greatest Generation".
50 years after that first trip across the country (1935) to California and the birth of swing and BG still looks and plays great.
This was a real America.........when anybody dreams came thru......God Bless America
How many people thought Benny Goodman, if they had even heard of him, was some kind of shooting star who faded out in the 1940's? No, he was swinging and creative right up to the end of his life. And don't let anyone think of this music as a nostalgia trip. It is timeless - and there are countless young people out there still doing it.

Benny Goodman alone on UTube is reason enough to have a computer at any price.
DITTO
I cannot agree more!!!!
This man and a few other orchestra leaders are what I thought were the "end of the world", when I first heard them play back in the day. The incomparable Benny Goodman, was the man who got folk's feet to tapping across the globe. I can't praise him highly enough. Truly a great guy .
Meine Erinnerung als kleines Mädchen haben meine Onkels diese Musik gespielt,ich war 5 Jahre ❤🎉
Just fabulous - how wonderful to see genius masquerading as a humble band leader. How civilised the world was back then - and the musicians could all play - having studied for 20 years to get to this level of skill. Wonderful music - wonderful era.
broxmouth truly one of the classiest gentleman ever I love don't be that way
This gives me some really high quality tears and sets my feet a tapping. ❤🎶
I love this video clip. Just look at those grandmas and grandpas enjoying themselves. It looks like they are still in their 20s. I can't see myself dancing to contemporary music when I am at the they are now. How disappointing. Maybe there a few exceptions. I'm keen to hear from those who'll be dancing to contemporary popular music in their over 50s. The senior with lady in green looks like Sir Alex Ferguson. They are my favorite couple in the room.
Yes man quality music from one good weather ! I'm 40 years old and I like it a lot !!!
My wife and I have danced all our lives (now 71 y/o). Lucky enough to catch some big bands in the 60s and 70s now they seem to be mostly gone. Now we dance to country western music at least once a week with the same 2-step we love and a little 'jitterbug' thrown in. Still lots of great dancing here in Arizona, especially during the winter when all us 'snowbirds' fill the bars and halls. We are lucky!
What a treat to have heard and danced to this glorious music, live.
The joy he has performing this is something special, and that smile at the end says it all. Enough to bring a tear of joy to your eye as I’m sure this takes him back to the glory days. Thank you for sharing!
Wonder what it is like to stand on a stage knowing you are a living, breathing legend.
Hard to think about right?
Very well know tune and with this version plenty of top players....Ken Peplowski, Bob Haggart, Louis Bellson....even is better.Super!!!
This is soo great! He really enjoys the music!
All great musicians but ....Dick Hyman, Louis Bellson, Bob Haggart . Rhythm section made in heaven.
THAT IS music.
louis bellson was terrific and also a very nice man....one of benny's many tunes from the goodman 'book'-he has to be remembering back to the old days & is getting a genuine kick out of seeing people enjoying the music & dancing....
Apart from his fabulous playing, I like his cool minimalist conducting of the band. He knew what he wanted and how to get it.
What a great music, it's unbelievable, that todays music is only noise with a beat.
This is when America was AMERICA! What a great musician, what a great band leader! This music was made for moving the feet! The wife and I, on a 10 hour road trip, after 7 hours listening to Series 40's Junction realize there was no sappy sad music to bog you down... since then huge fan of this music ! Bring Back swing!
Wow, still on top of his game at 80. Love this!
I know right
Actually he was 76. Born in 1909, passed away only about a year after this video was made.
One of the best of the big band era 💜
Bloody good old days and swing!
Wow! Benny was old. He still sounded really good.
Some good shit right here. Smh no one in my generation gets it. There’s no musically in what they listen to, this though is absolutely amazing!
This song is kinda celestial, it makes me cry, especially for the sax section.
Wow! What a treat! This is the music I could hear coming from my dad's bedroom every night from his record player!!!
Louis Bellson must always always be included in any discussion of great Jazz drummers !
He invented the double bass drum while with Duke Ellington's orchestra.
he was also the husband of the great Pearl Bailey until her death in 1990
スウィングの王様、ベニー・グッドマンの何時聴いても楽しくなる曲です。
One of the greatest band performances in history!!!
Timeless I was born at the wrong time fabulous ♥️
Good as it gets. BG opening with Don't Be That Way. That's the 30s swing era
Trade mark of Benny!
Tight, swings, some really good players. Big memories of the number.
When people got dressed up and listened to real music played by geniuses. I swing dance with girls in their 20s and they love it!
Ah yes. This music dates from an era before tech wizardey manipulated the finished sound. In tose days if a musician couldn't play well enough, he didn't eat.
people still dress up and listen to music by real geniuses you just havent gone to a charli xcx concert
benny goodman otra de las grandes orquestas..que nos emocionaba escucharla y bailar con sus interpretaciones...que belleza...que ritmo que alegria..volver a recordar es volver a vivir

Musik vom feinsten.Grüße. Grüße aus Berlin Zehlendorf
Look at all the couples actually dancing! I love it
Good music from some good times !!!!!!!
Brilliant to the end. Utmost respect to a wonderfully brilliant musician.
I love how both Benny and the drummer look so happy while they are playing. You don't see that nowadays with this shit people call music. Today, there is no such thing as "in tune".
The drummer is the late great Louis Bellson. Always wore a smile.
Real music played by very competent musicians.
You just have to be that way.SUPER.
La musica del Sr. Benny Goodman 1000% bailable uno de los grandes genios del swing
¡Exactamente!
BENNY GOODMAN LO ADORO AUNQUE NO FUE DE MI EPOCA PERO QUE TALENTO
It is so great that all these masters playing so always so great till their last years. Benny Goodman, Teddy Wilson started their career in the 1930s and they bring so much joy to all people till their last year's in the 1980s.
dam my dad used to listen to this music and bert kafternat and dance and sing was soooo HAPPY !!!!!
WONDERFUL - so cheery to hear again, bringing back such nice memories :)
Don’t forget he was 75 yrs old here!

COMO DISFRUTABA VER A MIS TÍOS Y A MIS PAPAS BAILANDO SWING
QUE MÚSICA LAS GRANDES BANDAS. ❤❤❤❤❤

wonderful
love to see great artists still performing well in their later years. His version of Perfidia is a favorite.
Benny Goodman was 76 during this performance in 1985
For an account of the October 7, 1985 performance see Swing, Swing, Swing: The Life & Times of Benny Goodman
By Ross Firestone 448-449.
Sends cold chills up my back.
I'M 68.AND I LOVE IT
If you have heard the original 1938 version it's much better then the 1985 version specially the short drum solo by Gene Krupa.
Gene Krupa departed the band in 1938, but there are some excellent recordings of his short time with this legendary group.
wow c'est vrai, j'ai l'album remixé c'est écoeurant, Gene Gene Gene
Siempre actual, Saludos desde España
Even towards the end of his life, Benny sounded just as good as he did in the 1930s...He passed away in June of 86; just about nine months after this show...probably one of his very last if not the last I imagine.

The Goodman sound never gets old!!
Para sempre MAGICO!
GRACIAS AL TALENTO DE BENNY PODEMOS SEGUIR DISFRUTANDO DE BUENA MÚSICA.
ES UN PLACER ESCUCHARLO.💗
Genio y figura hasta la sepultura.
This is probably the latest date in history that you will hear a dance band playing in tune.
Sorry but you're wrong. Many fine bands since and still going. Check out BBC Big Band, Sid Laurence and lots of great European bands like Thilo Wolf. Many others of course, these only a few examples.
Fantástico. Intemporal.Eterno
I like this
I'd rather dance with the swing of the song!!!
I like the first song they played.

좋은영상 잘 감상했어요.Touch that moment will be surprised???
A slice of America.
Uma das mais importantes big bands da era de ouro do jazz!
3:20 Love this smile :)
This's fucking excellent song
Why do you have to use the F word? Doesn't add anything to your statement.
Foul mouth, what's the point?
I'm not certain but I think Benny wrote this song.
If you find the Harry James version on here you will also see a great arrangement, but somehow this one is the best for me; it has the right tempo - the tension between the beats that makes it so swinging. Harry's version is more up-beat bebop in my opinion.
Excellent.
Thanks for the posting.
VERY GOOD JAZZ, BYE, FRED ITALY MILANO, CIAO.
He was SOOooo good!!
Sensacional!
Benny Goodman! Saudades!
