Benny Goodman featuring Anita O'Day

[mr jazz]

bought the FLAC download. Excellent sound given its age and terrific performances, IMO. Anyone else heard this?

I've got the CD - very good sound quality. An OK performance - nice to hear O'Day with the Goodman band, although she's only on a couple of tracks. For some reason, "Sing Sing Sing" is mistitled "Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen" (BG does quote BMBDS during his solo).

I have the CD. I liked it a lot. Nice to hear Anita from that era.

As fine as their respective talents were, I think I'd pay the better money for recordings of any conversations between Anita O'Day and Benny Goodman that occurred on and/or regarding this gig.

I'm looking forward to the release of the O'Day-D'Imperio dialogues. I don't need it in hi-fi.

Why pay more for FLAC than for the CD, from which FLAC can be made as often as you lose your cloud?

I call it "Clown Services."
