Search - Benny Goodman :: Complete Legendary 1938 Carnegie Hall Concert

2008 two CD set featuring the 1938 Carnegie Hall concert in its entirety plus, as a bonus, the complete Benny Goodman January 18, 1938 radio broadcast, recorded only two days after the great event. Carnegie Hall was one of the main American stages for classical music since shortly after its inception. However, the real breakthrough occurred in 1938, when jazz gained mainstream recognition as a result of the January 16 Carnegie Hall concert featuring Benny Goodman with his orchestra, trio, quartet and guests. This edition presents Goodman's complete Carnegie Hall concert, including two tunes ('Sometimes I'm Happy' and 'If Dreams Come True') left off of the original LP release and the complete jam session on 'Honeysuckle Rose', which had been originally released in an edited form. As a bonus, the current edition also includes the complete Camel Caravan broadcast recorded on January 18, 1938, two days after the Carnegie Hall Concert (while the impact of that event was still fresh in the minds of the musicians). 33 tracks. Definitive.
