The first time I heard this was on The Benny Goodman Story. He wrote this for his wife to be. That was their theme song. It almost brings a tear to hear it and see him putting all he has into it and him so aged. Benny Goodman and Glenn Miller were the two that shaped the music of the WW2 era. The rest just played catch-up. There were good bands but those were tops. Bill, from Tn. 🇺🇸
Benny lives!! I am a muscian, and he is a great influence in playing no matter which instrument I am on .. sometimes he and I just hang out in my little studio.. well.. you know what I mean.
A master at work! Because of my mom and an older sister I knew him, Glenn Miller, the Dorseys, etc when I a kid in the early 50's as RnR arrived. Loved it all and still do! Thank you for posting this
I close my eyes and am transported back to those days in the late 30's and 40's listening to this magnificent music played by the best. Oh the memories
Thanks for sharing this classic video. My late grandfather used to play this on his clarinet, it was his favorite song. Seeing and hearing Mr. Goodman play like that reminds me so much of him.
I should have been a younger man in the 1920's through the 1940's. I liked the people better back then, the cars better back then and I really liked the music better back then.
to CaptainAmerica322, Son, it is a matter of age. If you really like music, you'll see when you are older, you'll love this music as I do. I am a trumpet player and I like every kind of music but Jazz is my favorite, I can´t live without it. My name is Nelson and I live in Argentina.
Benny is probably the greatest clarinetist! I started playing Bb tenor saxophone in 1965 and shortly after that I watched the Benny Goodman story with Steve Allen.....I went out and bought a clarinet and have been practicing ever since but cannot match the talent and the performance of Benny Goodman...!
I don't know what to say really......I REALLY LOVE THIS PIECE IMMENSELY!!!Oh MY GOD...If I could only blow this piece right......I shall be most gratified...
Perfection in sound and mood from Goodman, and thanks to someone's magic with computer, this is the best quality I've ever heard from this Macbook Pro. What a treat! Thank you so very much.
That hurt you feel is the price you payed for for having her in your life . I'M sure if the good lord had offered you that joy at double the charge ... you would have grabbed that deal in a HEARTBEAT ... I hear this music and my heart goes out to you
This is simply magnificent on so many levels. His style, his tone...everything. Perfection looks and sounds just like this. When the good Lord wants to hear a clarinet ballad, well, you know the rest.
@CaptainAmerica322 ROCK ON MAN! You are a young man of taste and sensibility... If only the rest of your age group would be as open-minded... or well-informed!
Two wonderful wonderful gifts to the world !!! This marvellous Eubie Blake number, rendered by these excellent musicians. Whenever I listen to this song, I am reminded of Eubie Blake's remark on his 100th birthday. He quipped: "If I knew I would live to 100, I would have taken better care of myself" Thank you for sharing this gem.
+Joanette Mallo Kindred spirit. This is my "go to" song for a bad day at work - also "Goodbye" is a good one for bedtime - Benny works like a charm every time!
@mcarthurwallace actually, it's "those who can, do. those who can't, teach. those who can't teach, teach gym". that being said, i still agree with the gist of this thread :)

Beautiful. Memories of you is the tune I selected at my wife's funeral service.
Rest in peace.
Very sweet Daniel. I think that was a fantastic decision. God bless.
God bless you.
So I did at my father's funeral in 2003. Touches the heart
Você merece!!!
ムーディーで最高の曲ですね。
ライヴハウスにJAZZを聴きに行くとリクエストする１曲です。
この曲を聴きながら飲むカクテルは格別な味がします。
やっぱり、大御所は、素晴らしいですね、なんて、色っぽいんだろね。
いつ聴いてもベニーの優しさが出ているいい曲♪
What joy this brings me .One of my favourite songs xxxxxxx

Aged, yes, but at the top of his game. Goodman got better with the years. A testament to the therapeutic value of music.
Music by Eubie blake
Lyric by Andy Razaf. 3:03
Benny Goodman is like quality wine. It gets better with age.
やっぱりこれだよね、なんて色っぽいんだろうね。幸せです。

The man can never be replaced. What a loss. He was the best!!!!
I close my eyes and am transported back to those days in the late 30's and 40's listening to this magnificent music played by the best. Oh the memories
Hope you enjoy !
One of the most evocative, mellow, swinging songs of its genre, played by a true master.
Thanks for sharing this classic video. My late grandfather used to play this on his clarinet, it was his favorite song. Seeing and hearing Mr. Goodman play like that reminds me so much of him.
Sad that nowadays we don't make music like this anymore.
exactly right!-this is the ultimat!e
He played the clarinet so sweetly....miss this kinda music.

Yes he surely did. One of our greats!
I should have been a younger man in the 1920's through the 1940's. I liked the people better back then, the cars better back then and I really liked the music better back then.
Unforgettable Benny Goodman perfomance. Love it , thrill me.
Ah! Sweet Memories of Benny's music.
Good for you CaptainAmerica322 you have the right attitude. I wish there were more people in this world like you.
I'm 17, love heavy metal, but still can appreciate, and listen to this man. The master of swing.
What a talent. Miss him dearly every single day!
This is sublime.

was lucky enough to see him, along with my mother, both huge fans, at the Ravinia festival outside of chicago
Ricordi indimenticabili di un'epoca d'oro che ormai non torna più.Meno male che ci sono le registrazioni!
いつ聴いても優しい時代を思い出し優しい気持ちになれる。テディ・ウィルソンとの名コンビというよりTwo Giantsほんとうに素晴らしい。
Thank you mr. Benny
Perfection in sound and mood from Goodman, and thanks to someone's magic with computer, this is the best quality I've ever heard from this Macbook Pro. What a treat! Thank you so very much.
Thank you for your comment. I'm glad to hear that. It's worth it because his music is the treasure of humankind.
That hurt you feel is the price you payed for for having her in your life .
I'M sure if the good lord had offered you that joy at double the charge ... you would have grabbed that deal in a HEARTBEAT ...
I hear this music and my heart goes out to you
Teddy Wilson on piano...Benny's secret weapon!
Biloxi Blues ... just sent shivers down my neck !

Amazing!

He played so great...even at eighty, he was "The King of Swing!"
8 personas no tienen idea lo que es tener una trayectoria asi de increíble!!
若かった頃の、懐かしい思い出が甦りました。
@mcarthurwallace actually, it's "those who can, do. those who can't, teach. those who can't teach, teach gym".
that being said, i still agree with the gist of this thread :)
sit down , close your ayes, and dream..........whithout "parangón" Benny and his "trío" the best I ever heard.
beautiful version, thanks.
Grandissimi Benny e il pianista.
Il pianista è Teddy Wilson...
Wonderful!
❤
Benny was a Goodman
Fantastico,lo más grande
Que calidad! Ya casi no se hacen estas canciones 😥
Ah, if only he had lived to be eighty. But I agree with your sentiment - he played beautifully until the end.
wonderful comment
こんな世界につつまれたなら、世界はもっと緩やかになるんだろうにね。
Beautiful Benny!
Fantástico! Quando se ouve uma música e dá pra sair assobiando, essa é das boas!
Show!
Such technique on the clarinet!
What a sound! This is American treasure.
Un hombre muy sencillo y simpático,cuando estuvo en Mtvdeo,un lujo que transportó con su música a lo bello
Good goal to strive for. Good luck to you.
