Watch: Sing, Sing, Sing

Picture of Benny Goodman Orchestra

To help celebrate the birthday of Benny Goodman, which was on May 30th, I thought I'd post a clip of Goodman and the band playing their shortened version of "Sing, Sing. Sing".  Goodman is in top form along with Gene Krupa and Harry James.

This clip is from a 1937 movie called "Hollywood Hotel" which starred  Dick Powell, Rosemary Lane, Lola Lane, Hugh Herbert, Ted Healy, Glenda Farrell and Johnnie Davis.

This is such a great performance of "Sing, Sing, Sing", but the film is most remembered for another song "Hooray for Hollywood".

Enjoy!
