One Of Our Deleted Albums Series

Benny Goodman (1909-1986) was one of the most world's most popular band leaders during the Big Band era of the 1930's and 1940's.

He recorded this Direct To Disc album in 1978 for Century Records, catalogue number CRDD-1150.

This is an excellent album but, as far as I am aware, this album has been deleted and is no longer available in any format.

The audio here was taken from a 1978 US pressing of the original Century Records LP, which I bought when it was first released in 1978.
