Benny Goodman: "Sing! Sing! Sing!"

This is the 1938 Carnegie Hall performance. When the piano solo kicks in at 9:26, the place goes dead silent. It's like a high mass.

Here's the original version of "Sing! Sing! Sing!" by Fletcher Henderson & His Orchestra. One might note references to Minnie the Moocher by Cab Calloway and The Music Goes Round and Round by Reilly & Farley.
