Duke Ellington once asked Count Basie if he thought that a composition he had just written was too difficult to be performed. Count Basie's response? "Take it to Benny Goodman. If he can't sight-read it then it's too difficult." That's how much other musicians and band leaders respected Benny Goodman.
J'ai 76ans, quand j'ecoute du Benny Goodman je me mets aussitot à esquisser quelques pasde swing, pas aussi leste que quand j'avais 20 ans mais je danse. C'est comme une messe.... Bien le bonjour à tous ceux ou celles qui ecoutent cette compil en ce moment. Dieu vous bénisse.
I wasn’t even born when this music was a hit. Sad many oldies radio stations don’t go back this far, because this is good music regardless when it was written.
Я прочитал коменты, все на английском, русскоязычные тоже любят джаз, я тоже люблю свинговую, тем более Бени Гудмана, у нас тогда трудно было найти пластинки, ну мы доставали, я тогда жил в Баку, и к нам приезжали джавые группы и я старался не пропусксть эти концерты. Тогда у нас очень был популярен фильм "Серенада солнечной долины. Да я и сейчач слушаю эту музыку особенно Лунную серенаду. Всем мира и добра. Нсибарь Новосибирск.
I’m 80 & remember my mom & dad dancing & Daddy singing. Sometimes we girls got to go, what fun we had. Even in my 40s I waited for the swing to be played. It never grows old even if I do 💃💃💃💃
There's a story to this. On January 16, 1938, Benny was leading and playing in his quiet manner but Gene Krupa, the drummer, got tired of playing the usual dance tempo and, during one of the breaks he went wild and the band followed him, breaking out into real swing at a fast step. The audience, instead of slow dancing, went wild! Benny saw this result and accepted this change!
11 years ago today dad, you went to swing with Benny Goodman and all your favourites, we all miss and love you. Keep the cat's dancing!!...🎼🎵🎶🎙🥁🪕🎻🎺🎹🎸🪗🎷📻🪘
The opening track, Sing Sing Sing, is one of the most enduring swing hits. It is made all that much better by Gene Krupa's unmistakable drumming. .... and of course Benny's clarinet. Even though this was from 84 years ago, it can still be heard and appreciated for its high quality.
Benny Goodman, Tommy and Jimmy Dorsey, Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong and so many others. This music, way before I was born, was the best. And let me not forget Billie Holiday. And please bring back swing music.
When I was a teen, I felt the way you do. My peers were all listening to R&R, and I tried to listen to it too so that I could fit in. I just couldn't do it. So I went back to listening to swing, to the Big Bands of the 1030's and 1940's, and the great crooners of those years. I felt much better for doing so.
I'm 45 and felt that way when I was 21. If you like swing watch swing kids it's a fabulous movie both for the underground swing culture in Europe. I love swing I grew up on stories of my grandma growing up in the south and sneaking out to go swing dance when she was a teen. She even seen Elvis live once in the very early years and even tho she was married and no longer living at home when her dad found out the whole family was up in arms. She taught me quite a few moves and could still cut a rug even after going blind later in life all the way till the day she died. Glenn miller in the mood was her favorite song of all time.
Find east coast swing events. Yes it's mostly old folks, but there are almost always at least some of us young crowd. If you go to a event in a city you'll find mostly 30 and below.
I did when I was 20...decades ago in the 70s...I was pretty much in a minority then. This is glorious High Art Musicianship..inspiring, life enhancing Wow!!!!❤
Tell you what Mexican Boy, check out Mongo Santamaria, Dave Valentine, or just about anything from Tito Puente. Latin jazz is the most happening jazz these days I'd say.
I remember me grandparents dancing at this, and several years after, I played drums with me friends of the jazz ensemble and we played this for them and they sweep the floor with a great performance, omg the ovation for them was huge
@@gispel7058 nowadays everyone dresses like trash and its all about some pathetic champaigne socialism with complete apathy... oh what happens when standards slip
I lived in SF in the 60’s the summer of love BS. Instead of being a drug addled follower I listened to KNBR radio and DJ Dave Niles who had a three hour show on weekends dedicated to the big bands. I learned all about them thanks to Dave Niles who passed just last year at 91. I’m forever grateful RIP Dave
In the early 70's in Montreal as a teenager I would buy all the records of Pink Floyd, The Stones, Alice Cooper and The Who and go see them with my friends at the Forum. But, at home, in my bedroom I would listen to all these big band tunes on an ancient gramophone I brought down from the attic. I had found boxes full of Bluebird 78's in my grandparents basement. First time I heard 'Swing, swing, swing" I think I almost lost bladder control. Of course my parents and my friends were troubled by this... weirdness! And my other, most secret musical taste was early Baroque music. I would take my cassette player deep into the park on a nice day and lie there listening to Lully, Vivaldi and the gang. Then came opera.
Used to play this music in high school swing band. I grew up listening to this music--my parents were born in '23 and '27, and this was their generation's music. We had plenty of 78's and 33-1/3's. My parents enjoyed every minute of it--and so did I (and still do)! BTW, I still have the records (and a means to play both speeds).😎
Good Music is timeless. I still have Stereo equipment that's 49 years old, Sony and BSR 33-45 & 78 rpm! But my health is failing so TH-cam is easier for me til I go up yonder...
My father passed on his love of Goodman and the big bands on to me, I've passed it on to my daughter, and hope it will pass on to the grandkids. This is simply lovely music.
"He's also in my eyes the greatest jazz musician." Still having trouble with the ears and eyes? If so, I can turn you on to some great physicians that can help. Dig?
If you're gonna have one all-time favorite, Benny's as good as any. I saw him live about 50 years ago. He played for about two and a half hours, and every note that came out of that horn was butter.
The clarinet is the best sound machine ever to be created ,thank you very much mr inventor and thank you very much to the likes of Benny here, may he r i p !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!0
The clarinet was invented by Willie Humphrey. Just before (or maybe just after) he invented jazz music. That according to Willie himself of course. If you don't know to whom I'm referring, you haven't been around long enough.😂
This is the music that my brothers listen to when they came back from World War 2 my mother was 39 years old when I was born and had been kids for 19 years my oldest brother was in the Marine Core a year before I was born and that’s how I was introduced to big band music I was born 1941
ALL of Benny's band did an immense job, but, in my humble opinion, it was GENE KRUPA'S fantastic drumming that was the key to Sing, Sing, Sing's gigantic popularity then and now in 2023!
My father loved Goodman! He was a kid when Goodman was young and collected Swing records. He had Goodman, Glenn Miller, the Mills Brothers. They had no record covers. But when he had to move into an apartment for hospice all his prized records were stolen. I still have dad’s 87 year old clarinet he got to try to play like him when he was nine so that was 1936, but just squeaked. The case is so old the handle fell off. At Music Carnival in 1975 here I am that shut down sometime after, the family saw Benny Goodman and it was a thrill for me and dad was like a kid in a candy store. He loved seeing his idol. When I hear Big Band music I think of my parents and uncle who were kids then and dad playing his big stacks of original Big Band records. And my parents could Jitterbug real good. That was their era. Mom could also Polka too.
An era that has gone forever,it wasn't just the brilliant musicians,it was the socialogical enviroment,in other words the type of society that then prevailed.No more Armstrong,Basie,Goodman etc.Gone into the ether never to be seen again,but thanks to science the music will live on,we just have make sure the young appreciate it.
My mom and dad turned this on during the fifties and sixties which is when I was growing up. My brother went on to play piano and clarinet. Me guitar. Great music and must have been fantastic back then. Until the war broke.
Benny was a true gentleman especially when he stood up for his non white skinned musicians! It really pissed him off! Talent comes in many colors……. My god! What awesome music ❤
The 2004 Japanese film "Swing Girls" is a sweet story of a group of mid teens girls..and one boy..who formed a Swing band to perform in a regional music competition....The real life story of how these novices got to performance level of "Sing..." is fascinating.
💌This feels like a love letter from my uncle George who served in WWII. When I was a teenager he taught me how to dance the foxtrot and would bring me chocolates on Valentines Day. Scrolling through photos of Chicago in the 1940's and remembering him telling me how he worked at The Uptown theater just before the war started. He met my aunt Hazel who took tickets down the street at The Riviera. Love stories in Chicago thrill my heart. It's my kind of town. 🌹
wasn't born yet .But turning on swing makes me appreciate the American effort in that awful war. How very sad it was absolutely forbidden for German's to listen to it.
and after the War. I was born in 1940 (London) and although exact memory fails me, I do recall seeing him live at some stage? Above all I remember him giving on of the small group playing a real rocket for some error or other. Wish I could remember the details of where and when!
Wonderful music from the King of Swing . This was back in the days when records were made successful by musicians, rather than by the skill of recording engineers' In those days, if you couldn't play you didn't eat.
Complicated is good. Myself, whenever I listen to Beethoven or Brahms, I am compelled to follow it up with Metallica or Black Sabbath, though Led Zeppelin works too. I don't understand how anyone can listen to one kind of music exclusively. As for old Benny, Sing Sing Sing has about the heaviest drums ever, and only John Bonham could have ever come close to what Gene Krupa did. Besides, as Duke Ellington pointed out, there are only two kinds of music: 'Good music, and the other kind.'
@@thomassnider6691 I mean if you're going to mix times and genres, Neil Peart and Mike Portnoy blow him out of the water. I'm sure he was a direct or indirect influence though.
@@humantacos9800 I picked Bonham because of the sheer force he used to play with. As for Neil Peart, I consider him one of the most fantastic drummers ever. I've never heard of Mike Portnoy though. Where would one find music that he played on?
This is *so* classy and stylish! People who listened to this had rather upper-crust tastes! I can tell Benny and his orchestra really put their heart and soul into this production!
Born in 51 and even then, I was too old for my age. I Rember listening to Benny Goodman Tommy Dorsey, Mills Brothers , Andrew Sisters, of course Frankie on the "record player" while playing pool with my father in our reck ( another name for den) room: O yes Kate Smith -- God bless America. The sad thing is today our country can not be blessed by God until Americans repent and bless God first. -Ray Delbury Sussex County NJ USA
My father would have this music blaring on Saturday mornings when I was a pre-teen growing up in the 70‘s. Never failed to wake me up. I hated it because all I wanted was my rock n roll. All these years later, I still love my rock music but I have an appreciation for this as well. Thanks Dad!!
You know these guys were doing it right when one of the counties we fought in WW2 (Japan) has a high school band that plays Benny's 'Sing Sing Sing' as their theme song. They are the Kyoto Tachibana High School Marching Band. The band is comprised mostly of young girls with a passion for music of all types (and especially Big Band)!! Just search 'Tachibana High School Band - Sing Sing Sing'. You won't be disappointed!😄♬🎶👍
Feel That Swing. In the yesteryears my hometown had the biggest dancefloor between Boston and Montreal. Benny and all the greats stepped off the train to play. If I had a time machine...
Я моряк родня тоже моряки как же прекрасна эта музыка и как мы отжигали не только на палубе под эту мелодию спасибо преподавательнице по танцам за то что и танцевать научила и привила хороший вкус к музыке
This is a wonderfully music, this is the clasic music of swing times, Mr Bennett Goodman is my prefer clarinet interpreter , Good for you Master!!!!! Many thanks Mr Benny Goodman, your surname says all, you are a very good Man!!!!!
I growed up in the sixties. My parents loved this stile. Later I became a dancer and made different choreographies ( most tap dance) to these wonderful swinging sounds.😊
Just listened to Sing. That's the clearest sound I've ever heard of that piece, and I've listened to it on many sites. Someone did a fantastic job remastering the recording. . . . Now I see that the same is true for the other tracks.
Duke Ellington once asked Count Basie if he thought that a composition he had just written was too difficult to be performed. Count Basie's response? "Take it to Benny Goodman. If he can't sight-read it then it's too difficult." That's how much other musicians and band leaders respected Benny Goodman.
Excelente toda la vida Benny Goodman y Gene Krupa.

wasn't born yet .But turning on swing makes me appreciate the American effort in that awful war. How very sad it was absolutely forbidden for German's to listen to it.
and after the War. I was born in 1940 (London) and although exact memory fails me, I do recall seeing him live at some stage? Above all I remember him giving on of the small group playing a real rocket for some error or other. Wish I could remember the details of where and when!
Swing music promotes slavery. plz delete this music and all other such things from ur life

Wonderful music from the King of Swing . This was back in the days when records were made successful by musicians, rather than by the skill of recording engineers' In those days, if you couldn't play you didn't eat.
Great comment
So true 😻
Music is food......some like it hot & some cold.....some sweet ..some sour
Oh good musicians are still around, it's just people who are too lazy to listen to them...
This beautiful music will live for ever
While driving and listing to this you will swing in your seat
Watch out for the Highway cops.
Was gut ist ,ist gut,egal wieviel Zeit vergeht.
I play in a heavy metal band, people ask me what bands I like. I just say “it’s complicated.”
I hear ya. My playlist will go from Sabaton to Benny Goodman to Jonny Cash to Michael W Smith to Kamelot. It confuses people.
Complicated is good. Myself, whenever I listen to Beethoven or Brahms, I am compelled to follow it up with Metallica or Black Sabbath, though Led Zeppelin works too. I don't understand how anyone can listen to one kind of music exclusively. As for old Benny, Sing Sing Sing has about the heaviest drums ever, and only John Bonham could have ever come close to what Gene Krupa did. Besides, as Duke Ellington pointed out, there are only two kinds of music: 'Good music, and the other kind.'
@@thomassnider6691 I mean if you're going to mix times and genres, Neil Peart and Mike Portnoy blow him out of the water. I'm sure he was a direct or indirect influence though.
@@humantacos9800 I picked Bonham because of the sheer force he used to play with. As for Neil Peart, I consider him one of the most fantastic drummers ever. I've never heard of Mike Portnoy though. Where would one find music that he played on?
@@thomassnider6691 He's the drummer from Dream Theater.
It's absolutely music from heaven this is what kept the boys over seas going during ww2
Thank you Benny Goodman and all the big bands😍😍😍
I'm 3 months old and I listen to this great music in my crib! I find it very relaxing, while I stare at the ceiling!
This is *so* classy and stylish! People who listened to this had rather upper-crust tastes! I can tell Benny and his orchestra really put their heart and soul into this production!
Born in 51 and even then, I was too old for my age. I Rember listening to Benny Goodman Tommy Dorsey, Mills Brothers , Andrew Sisters, of course Frankie on the "record player" while playing pool with my father in our reck ( another name for den) room: O yes Kate Smith -- God bless America. The sad thing is today our country can not be blessed by God until Americans repent and bless God first. -Ray Delbury Sussex County NJ USA
I was born in 81 and listen to them.
My father would have this music blaring on Saturday mornings when I was a pre-teen growing up in the 70‘s. Never failed to wake me up. I hated it because all I wanted was my rock n roll. All these years later, I still love my rock music but I have an appreciation for this as well. Thanks Dad!!
さすがベスト❣️
もう全曲私のハートに刺さりすぎて、多分一生分のアドレナリン出ました。
You know these guys were doing it right when one of the counties we fought in WW2 (Japan) has a high school band that plays Benny's 'Sing Sing Sing' as their theme song. They are the Kyoto Tachibana High School Marching Band. The band is comprised mostly of young girls with a passion for music of all types (and especially Big Band)!! Just search 'Tachibana High School Band - Sing Sing Sing'. You won't be disappointed!😄♬🎶👍
I can remember my parents playing this and maybe even taking a few spins around the living room
That's so lovely

So glad my dad and uncle introduced me to swing music A beautiful gem from our past
LO MEJOR DE LO MEJOR !!! LO MÁS DIVINO ESCUCHADO !!! 💕💕💕💕💕
Feel That Swing. In the yesteryears my hometown had the biggest dancefloor between Boston and Montreal. Benny and all the greats stepped off the train to play. If I had a time machine...
Я моряк родня тоже моряки как же прекрасна эта музыка и как мы отжигали не только на палубе под эту мелодию спасибо преподавательнице по танцам за то что и танцевать научила и привила хороший вкус к музыке
The best music to do housework to. Brings back memories of my mother
Also, I just love the swing era!
Absolutely! ^_^

I growed up in the sixties. My parents loved this stile. Later I became a dancer and made different choreographies ( most tap dance) to these wonderful swinging sounds.😊
Unbelievable good 😄. It‘s fantastic, it‘s swing!
So right Andrei
The Four great of Swing never will die. Glenn Miller, Benny Goodman, Artie Shaw, Duke Ellington.
懐かしいベニーグッドマンの演奏、私も昔はLP盤を数枚持っていたのですが・・・、若き良き時代の想い出がよみがえってきます。(ありがとう!)
There are some outstanding films of this song being played.
Музыка на века !!!
Легкая,ритмичная и ненавязчивая...
Прелесть !!!❤❤❤
Just listened to Sing. That's the clearest sound I've ever heard of that piece, and I've listened to it on many sites. Someone did a fantastic job remastering the recording. . . . Now I see that the same is true for the other tracks.
