Columbia Records had so neglected most of its classic jazz catalog, in terms of
both the frequency and quality of reissues, that it was not a huge surprise when
this combination of two LPs on one CD appeared on the Collectables label in 2000
-- the 75 minutes of music here represents some of the prime work of Benny
Goodmans favorite arranger, Fletcher Henderson, and his best arranger, Eddie
Sauter, and it sort of pays for itself with the opening track (in the Henderson
material, no less), a stomping rendition of Honeysuckle Rose featuring a hot
solo by guitarist Charlie Christian. The nine instrumental cuts from the
Henderson album, dating from 1939 and 1940, are augmented with a trio of new
vocal numbers featuring singer Helen Ward and dating from 1953, but the
producers have been very successful at matching the sound in the numbers from
across 14 years, and the personnel are careful to match their playing. The
Sauter-arranged sides are more surprising and challenging instrumentally, and
include Peggy Lee or Helen Forrest on vocals on a handful of tracks. The
production is excellent overall, and theres no reason that this material couldnt
have been part of Sonys Legacy reissue line, except for the general neglect of
the Goodman Columbia library.
