This was the best collection of Benny Goodman that I have heard. I have collected many Benny Goodman recordings and this has become my favorite.

GOOD OVERVIEW - Reviewed on 2007-06-12

7 customers found this review helpful.

The sound quality of this anthology is excellent, particularly considering most of the tracks are from the 1930s/1940s. The booklet could be more comprehensive and the track selection feels a little arbitrary, but the Goodman magic is still wonderfully evident on every track. Did anyone ever play so fluidly and so magically?
