THE NIGHT OF JANUARY 16, 1938

BENNY GOODMAN AT CARNEGIE HALL

For an encore, Goodman reached back to a tune popularized by Fletcher Henderson's band nearly a decade earlier. Solos are for clarinet (Goodman) and trumpet (Harry James).

The crowd went home happy. History was made.

"Big John's Special"

We'll be back in three weeks with Rockumentary.

Thanks, Publius and Luv, for sharing Benny Goodman with us all. ((HUGS)) Easy listening...

I missed everyone last night as the cable guy was here, upgrading equipment, almost 4 hours trying to make everything work all at once, instead one on and the other off...then the reverse. He finally had to call his supervisor and it took them another 30 minutes to finally make everything work.
