I thought Benny Goodman was THE KING OF SWING

[TankerKC]

Goodman did have an album titled "King of Swing". I'm no expert, so I turned to Google. It looks like the King of Swing is either Goodman, Artie Shaw, or Barry Bonds. I'll continue my research and get back to you.

I agree - Benny Goodman was the King of Swing. My little sister, now a professional clarinet player, met him when she was in high school in the 1970s and nearly swooned. He was very gracious to her.

I was quite puzzled when I saw the title of this thread, to say the least!
