    These solos, trios and clarinet/vibes quintets are a fine introduction to small group swing.

    Teddy played with a slightly more illustrious quintet 30 years earlier - Benny Goodman, Lionel Hampton, John Kirby, Buddy Schutz - swing royalty, if you exclude Schutz.

    There's some confusion about the recording date. My cd (booklet and inlay) says June 18, 1969. The original lp's say it's June 18, 1967. The 'Air Mail Special' cd has the same line-up and gives June 18, 1967 as the recording date. Adding to the confusion is the 'Air Mail Special' Polydor lp of uncertain vintage, which lists March, 1968.

    The quintet tracks sound much brighter than the rest. Different sessions?

    Teddy's style remains much as it was in the 30's. He's restrained, never flowery, precise, charming. I don't know the sidemen, other than their work on 'Air Mail Special'. They're competent.

    They could hardly go wrong with this set of chestnuts. All but the solo tracks are Goodman staples. They take 'Body And Soul' at a brisker pace than usual. Can you hear 'I'll Never Be The Same' and not think of Billie and smile? Teddy backed her on that track.

    Question of the day: Did Benny Goodman ever record a solo track? I've heard most of Goodman's recordings up to the time of Charlie Christian's death, and not one is a solo.

    I've got gripe. 99% of all recorded occurrences are 'Stompin' At The Savoy'. Why is it 'Stomping' in the album and track names? I hate non-standard spellings of standards' names.

    Another gripe. 'Manufactured On Demand' reissues sold by Amazon and other major new-cd sellers. Black Lion may not provide a wealth of discographical tidbits, but the cd-r reissues by '1201 Music' are abominations. Just a track list, poorly printed on cheap paper, lacking even the composers' names. Even the jewel cases are flimsy. More insidious are the cd-r reissues under their original label names, including all the Fantasy labels (Prestige, Contemporary, Pablo, Milestone), Blue Note, Concord, Sony/Columbia/Epic, I guess eventually everything. It wouldn't be so bad if new upc/ean codes were applied to these inferior products, but they retain the original codes, making it more difficult to identify this dreck.
