Depression Era Selections Vol I - The "Goodman Airchecks"
Submitted by jack on February 28, 2009 - 7:55pm.
The following playlist (just click play to listen) contains 48 performances (2.4 hours) of Benny Goodman leading small groups from 1939-1941 over the radio. Lionel Hampton is all over this and Louis Armstrong shows up too. Just hit the arrow next to "Play All 48" in lower left corner... and enjoy.
My personal favorite tune is "Opus 1/2" but finding more favorites with each listen.
