Friday Night Music-Benny Goodman

This week marked Benny Goodman’s 100th birthday. My wife is a big fan of Goodman’s, dating from her days as a clarinetist for the Oberlin High Marching Band. Here he is with Teddy Wilson, Tony Terran, Dick Nash, Eddie Duran, Al Obidenski and John Markham at the Aurex Jazz Festival in Japan, playing Sweet Georgia Brown.
