This review is from: Stealin' Apples (Audio CD)

Benny Goodman is best known for his large bands, but his small group sessions produced exquisite understated gems of jazz. They are characterized by a purity of purpose, infectious sparkle, and joyous music-making. Although originally recorded in 1947-49, the sound is quite good.
