One of the best things about jazz is without a doubt how varied the sound is. The deeper I dive into jazz the more assorted the music I find. I found a 10" of the Benny Goodman Trio at a local record store that specializes in jazz and blues. It's was released in 1951 but the music was recorded in the mid 30's. Fantastic swing. Benny Goodman on clarinet, Gene Krupa on drums, and Teddy Wilson on piano. What a trio. Three of the best of the era, and it shows. This music is timeless and I hope it will continue to find an audience. Swing music is classy and always in style.
