Swingin' with Benny Goodman
Benny Goodman's clarinet helped define a whole new style of music in the 1930s: Swing. His classic recordings of popular songs and dance music, so powerful and exciting then, still captivate us today.
Singer Terry Blaine, pianist Mark Shane, and clarinetist Allan Vaché had performed as a trio for several years at the Sacramento Jazz Jubilee before they decided to tour as a trio and perform music from the repertoire of Benny Goodman. It was a logical move since the trio has captured the Goodman sound of some its best interpreters; Vaché can closely emulate Goodman, Shane's main piano influence is Teddy Wilson, and Blaine is flexible enough to hint at Helen Ward, Martha Tilton, and Mildred Bailey while still sounding like herself.
