Benny Goodman Featuring Peggy Lee - Best Of Big Bands
Review by Linda Bux
The album "Best of Big Bands" by Benny Goodman featuring Peggy Lee is a timeless classic that showcases the best of swing music from the 1930s and 1940s. From the opening track "Sing, Sing, Sing" to the closing number "Why Don't You Do Right," this album is a treat for any jazz lover.
Goodman's clarinet playing is flawless and his band's arrangements are tight and energetic. Peggy Lee's sultry vocals add a touch of class to the proceedings, particularly on tracks like "Fever" and "I'm Confessin'."
The album includes some of the biggest hits of the era, such as "In the Mood," "Chattanooga Choo Choo," and "Moonlight Serenade," as well as lesser-known gems like "Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen" and "Stompin' at the Savoy."

A top cha cha cha version by Esther Phillips in the mid 1960s !

Somebody else is taking my place
Somebody else now shares your embrace
While I am trying
To keep from crying
You go around with a smile on your face
Little you know the price that I've paid
Little you care for vows that you made
My heart is aching
Soon will be breaking
For somebody's taken my place
Somebody else now shares your embrace
While I am trying
To keep from crying
You go around with a smile on your face
Little you know the price that I've paid
Little you care for vows that you made
My heart is aching
Soon will be breaking
For somebody's taken my place
