This number is probably best remembered as
one of the standout performances from the
classic RCA Victor "Artie Shaw at the Blue
Room/Cafe Rouge" aircheck set, capturing the
1938-39 Shaw band at its apex. The short
"Second Chorus" performance featured here
gives us a sense of what the chart sounded
like when played by Artie's post-"Frenesi"
group. (The little dialogue coda is a
reminder that in the film, Fred Astaire and
Burgess Meredith were in "The Perennials" - a
college band whose students never graduated!) Tags :Artie_Shawswingjazzclarinetbig_band
Artie exploded on his assistant Teddy today
