In this double album set we are presenting the best big-band work from the man who was arguably the greatest jazz clarinettist in the world – ever! Even the most devout followers of his principle rival, Artie Shaw, are regularly forced to admit that in terms of technique, inspiration and sheer excitement Benny Goodman bettered everyone. This 2 album set is a selection of his big band classics so definitive that weathered Goodman aficionados will ruefully wish that they could once again hear them for the first time whilst new listeners will have no problem discovering their innumerable high spots.
