The seventh volume of music taken from the hundreds of tapes that Benny Goodman willed to Yale University covers a period of time when The King of Swing used pickup (although still all-star) groups, combining veterans with younger talents. This CD has nine selections from a septet with trumpeter Joe Newman, Zoot Sims's tenor and guitarist Attila Zoller. There is nothing surprising about the repertoire (BG generally ignored the novelty pop tunes of the '60s) and this particular unit works well. The remaining six numbers find Goodman sharing the frontline with trumpeter Doc Cheatham (whose solo style was not as well developed as it would become after he passed his 70th birthday), allocating two vocals to the forgotten Annette Saunders and trying out a new pianist who was subbing for Hank Jones, Herbie Hancock. Even with this unusual personnel, the result is a strong set of solid swing. ~ Scott Yanow, Rovi
