Those times will never come back, that way of life will never be part of us, the simple heart inside each of us back then now transformed into a piece of metal. I long for the gone-by era, the times when we knew the value of the constitution and all else which represented our way of life. I’m sorry it’s gone, as I will too one day. I hope remembering this music helps you cope.

I envy my elders who had the opportunity to see these bands in concert. Nearly all of these great band leaders have passed on by now, but in a way the big band era is still with us today with these recordings. If it were not so I, at a relatively young 44, would not be so in love with this music. On a rare occasion I will revisit the music of my youth, but I always go right back to the music of the 30's and 40's.

I can picture my late parents dancing to this. Dad looking smart in his dark blue suit, white shirt, dark blue tie and dancing pumps. Mum in a lovely cream silk blouse, black pleated skirt. Black stocking and black dancing shoes. Both are young, healthy and happy. Life is good for them!

I am a young 67, love Big Band music, the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, Rock n' Roll. Big Band Music is the best !

This is one of my favorite still photo videos & recordings. I was born in 1948 and am now 75 but my father raised me on just about all of the big bands and helped cultivate , encourage & manage my interests in music. I have played the Tenner Sax for the last 60 years & the Alto Sax 3 years before that. In addition I performed in numerous bands & fronted my own group. To me this recording showed the beauty of a young Helen Forest with a lovely voice to match her beauty along with the great sound of the celebrated sound of Benny Goodman. I have often wished that I wasn't so young and could have played in one Big Band Great Orchestras. Thank you for letting me see this again.

Helen forest was really underrated and a great singer

The music was plaid in a different tone as well. Then some "music experts" changed the tone frequency for instruments, and ever since the orchestra music (and every other music) is playing in a higher frequency, and THAT IS WHY today the singers also sing on a "high-pitch voice". I found that people got so used to this "changed system" that they not only sing, but also speak in a high-pitched voice! It's really annoying. Women had beautiful voice way back than. They talked on a much lover voice, they did sing on a lower voice, everything was just natural, until the "music experts" came and intervened. If you have old vinil records from the 20s 30s and early 40s, they have to be plaid on a different speed on your gramophone. If you have classical music from before the "change", and you have also the same classical music in a later addition (after the music experts...), play both of them, one after the another, and you will hear the difference! a very huge difference. The old system is very pleasant to listen, the new one is... something else, to put it mildly.

The exact difference made when a singer is trained for band work, plus simple talent. There has been a terrible trend for a few years to sound like, for instance Mariah Carey. There started a trend for yelling. Another was Janis Joplin. You could hardly imagine any of those singing successfully in any of the 40s big bands. A style was created and it overtook what had been previously known as musical skill.

This was originally a swing piece that was turned Latin later on.

I was born in '59, and therefore was too young to be in on the age of swing. However - as a child - many radio stations still played a LOT of big band, which I loved. I slept in the lower unit of a bunk-bed, and would strap my tiny transistor radio to the spring of the upper and play big band very low at bed time. If I fell asleep before turning in off, my batteries would be dead in the morning!

Wow, love this, Helen Forrester singing along with the big band. Fabulous era !

The track never sounded better. And it's pre-tape era. Marvelous transfer.

Helen and I were very close friends for more than 25 years. Of course I am prejudiced--but virtually all the notable writers and critics of era consider her the greatest of all the band singers--a moniker she often regarded with ambivalence in her later years. Knowing her as intimately as I did I'm certain she was unaware of the true extent of her talent and the impact she had on her listeners. Artie Shaw--a man not known for his compliments--who was the 1st of her three big band leaders said: "I love the way Helen interprets any song...she never got the credit she deserved". Her tenure with Benny Goodman (approx. 20 months) ranks among the highest of all his notable singers. There is much evidence in the form of commentaries from several musicians and singers who worked for him--that he was a strange man--as Helen described him--to say the least. He was not given to sharing the spotlight with any member of his band who would threaten his top dog status. And he would not hesitate to take appropriate measures to remedy such matters accordingly--often leaving the victim of his apparent disapproval wondering what they did or didn't do to displease him. He would regularly "noodle" behind Helen while she sang--making it difficult for her to concentrate on the melody line--all the while fighting to be heard over a 17 piece powerhouse orchestra behind her! This all notwithstanding--it is Benny Goodman's band during the period when Helen Forrest with him (1939-1941)--that I contend to be his most skilled, innovative and brilliant. Benny Goodman's foremost historian D. Russell Connor concurs. For substantiation all one needs to do is listen to their recording of "When The Sun Comes Out". After listening to it one day with Helen I remarked I thought it was the best record she AND Benny ever made...and the finest interplay between band and singer bar none. But her heart, happiness and fulfillment came at the peak of her career when she was with Harry James. So she discarded her years with Goodman--as he did her--shortly after she left the band. It did not end well. However, she gave the man his due the true professional she was. "Everyone wanted to play with Benny's band--it was never anything less than great and I gained a lot of experience and recognition during my time with him. In retrospect--the quality of the music is still indisputably outstanding and I hold no regrets or grudges". Aside: I have been writing "The Big Band Singer...The Helen Forrest Story" for many years and my conclusion is it would thrive best in a screenplay format. It's full of lovely and moving vignettes including related interactions and commentaries from Billie Holiday, Dinah Shore, Judy Garland, Betty Grable, Peggy Lee, Doris Day, Frank Sinatra, etc. Anyone out there interested and qualified with the resources to bring this project to life? I'll be waiting....

Wow! Wonderful performance!

So sad the big bands are gone but thanks to a lot of the big band lovers, I can still listen to them.

I was lucky enough to grow up with this wonderful music in the forties and fifties. So happy it is now availble via the internet at the push of a button. Benny could never have imagined that his music would still be discovered so many years after his death. As for Heln, well, was there ever a finer big band singer?

The early 1960s saw the end of this musical era. I watched and listened for a short while in horror as music began to deteriorate, with men singing like girls, and the old bands breaking up. Thank heaven I can still see and hear them here.

What a great arrangement this is, very full and muscular. And of course, the great singing of Helen Forrest, the best of the big band singers, just makes this a wonderful treat for the ears.

Robert W Yes, I got to basically briefly meet and greet him on a three day recording session, one of his very last. He was recording at my college, just my pure dumb luck, and the truly great drummer Louis Bellson was on the dates-one of the greatest drummers I’ve ever witnessed and heard. The whole band was just sheer professionalism and swing. Then I met Benny ... weird cat! I was basically a starving college student, and when the band finished eating I would go to the catering table and covertly grab leftover scraps. Benny made a snide remark to me about me continually stealing food, something along those lines. I couldn’t tell if he was joking. I recently read that made people incredibly uncomfortable in a lot of situations, so looking back, it all makes sense. But wow, what a musician. He was truly great, and that’s how I remember him primarily. So about that date with the girl at your Benny Goodman concert: understandable… If a chick is bored by that, she’s the wrong one.
