Ok ... fine ... but I'm still slightly puzzled, as I adore the rollicking nature of this piece. As for Benny Goodman himself ...
... weeelll, I've no real opinion of his later work but this one seems jolly enough, has solos, is jaunty, has jazz singing ... what's not to like?
If you want to hear good stuff from his Big Band, before it became boringly mechanical, listen to his Carnegie Hall concert.
