Benny Goodman - ONE O'CLOCK JUMP 

Benny Goodmans solo is absolutely stunning. The man was a sick perfectionist, but man did it pay off.

Simply just FANTASTIC. NOTHING LESS. I WAS AGED TWO...DON'T REMEMBER HEARING IT THEN.

The part where Goodman playing a solo with Fletcher and Lionel on drums, man that is swing at its finest. Mr Lionel was a great drummer.

I COULD LISTEN TO THIS MUSIC ALL DAY AND NEVER GET SICK OF IT. (I LOVE IT)

By golly. The boys are on fire. Swings like hell. Great musicianship. Untouchable.

Magnifico!!

Back in the 1950's i was with the USAF stationed at Otis AFB on Cape Cod. I was only 19 years old, NEVER had a lesson on piano, only a couple years on and off with accordion. First went to Iceland where i got hooked up with members of the USAF base band. They were DESPERATE for a piano player so i got the job with them, playing the clubs on base, 6 times a week, for about 5 months or so until they finally got a "replacement", a very talented exceptional learned pianist, so i was back to normal, no extra moola. I was whipped to say the least. Anywho, back to Cape Cod I get a call from the bandleader of the base band. Where he got it from i'll never know. There was going to be a GIG at the Officer's Club on a Sunday afternoon and i was asked if i could do the job, so i agreed. ( WOW ). LOL So, i show up meet the leader, gets squared away and he hands me the "charts". FIRST damn song was............you guessed it....."One O'clock Jump. It looked like there was a swarm of bees all over the pages, there were so damn many notes. So, i explained quickly "i am going to have to FAKE IT" in order to get through it. Key of B-flat and if i recall, it started with a 16-bar "intro" ( piano intro ) Well, i knew the key so we started and luckily the leader was "counting" the measures, and tHEN the band jumped right in.luckily. Making a long story short, that was one heck of an experience. The rest of the afternoon wasn't so bad. sheesh LOL

Absolutely wonderful...it will never die.

Makes me smile, every time I hear it. Learned to swing dance to this tune!

My dad loved 5 things. His family, the Cubs, cold beer, Weeping Willow trees, and Benny Goodman. Never did understand the trees but he literally could not go past one without stopping and looking. Sometimes you don't know how much you miss someone until you think about it. Thanks Dad, thanks Benny.

MERVEILLEUX MOMENTS!!!,MERCI ,DES MORCEAUX REMARQUABLES DU TALENT!!!.

Fletcher Henderson had to go some to beat Jess Stacy's piano solo the year before, but he does himself proud! Boy, that band was cooking!

Back in 1958 i was stationed at Otis AFB on Cape Cod.Somehow someone got my name and asked if i would do a Sunday afternoon "gig" at the Officer's Club starting around noon for th diners, and play with a 16-piece USAF band. i showed up that day sort of got set and was handed a bunch of music.Wouldn't you know, the first song ON TOP was One O'clock Jump, full of all black notes YIKES!! Here i was, a 20 year old "kid" who never took a piano lesson. I did take accordion on and off when i was about 14, taught myself to play piano while up in Iceland for 18 months and played 6 nights a week up there, making a LOT of $$ playing on base at the clubs. Anywho, back to the Cape. I didn't say a word but i knew i could never sight-read that fast, so i just followed the leader. A short intro from the band and there i was...facing what i believe to recall was either a 16-bar or 32-bar "piano solo" My old saying: "Never stop", so i started playing and "faked it" through my solo part and then did the rest of the gig for a couple hours. All in all, a great albeit, nervous experience, especially at the beginning.

I love this music it's GREAT

As a kid during The War, I grew up with these tunes from Benny, Whiteman, Miller, Dorsey et al.

Good to hear Fletcher enjoying himself at the piano behind Bernstein's bass solo. Hamp really drives the band!

I WISH I WAS AROUND IN THOSE DAYS THE BIG BANDS WERE GREAT

That swung like a gate.

Best version , best recording , now that's perfection

The Two O'Clock Jump descending trumpets began sometime between the Carnegie Hall Concert and the time Harry James left the band. James took that with him when he formed his band.

What a great fabulous SWINGING! rendition. Nice to hear a rhythm guitar in the section.I see Ziggy Elman's name in the trumpets.He later starred for Tommy Dorsey.

My dads favorite bandleader. I love this, I remember him sitting in his chair playing his records, tapping his fingers in the arm of the chair. Gosh, I miss him!

What a fabulous rendition of that great tune.Man,that swings and swung!!!!

Orchestra back then was the best music you could ever find today music

One of BG's best renditions of the piece. Not only does he group the TWO finales together, the descending arpegio part is modified into a double (even triple with Benny's clarinet) cannon descending arpegio. Great stuff!

Thanks for posting, I've been looking for this one for a long time! I love the ending - where they throw everything but the kitchen sink in there - all of the endings I've heard so the effect is building, building, building. Wonderful. BG is my favorite.

What a joy to listen to, wish they were still around to buy a round of beer for, they deserved our gratitude.

Of course, one has to realize that Benny GOODMAN probably felt he could extend the BOOGIE finale because a great deal of people were dancing in the aisles!!!

What a time. They had so much respect for their craft, they wore suits to practice.

Excellent graphic showing the instrument and the player's name. I love Benny. Saw him three times in the '70s in the greater L.A. area. Even waited outside the Long Beach Auditorium after that show to say hello and shake his hand. No one like him. And a gentleman, too; not like Artie Shaw in his dotage.

Without a doubt, this has to be the greatest arrangement of "One O'clock Jump".

Fantastic listening

La musica di questo brano mi è particolarmente piaciuta forse a causa di un ritmo più dinamico ma anche, credo, per la maggior ricchezza dei suoni di più strumenti musicali che giocavano a rincorrersi. Un BRAVO a tutta l' orchestra. 4:19

The Maestro at it again and Hamp on drums wow

I say that's what you call really good music no one would ever know today's generation

World War II people put out great music. Big Band will always be among the greatest genres!

Simply marvelous!

FABULOSO...

WOW !!!!!

I believe this is from the Oct 6 '39 ASCAP Concert at Carnegie Hall, where the other acts were Fred Waring Orch & Chorus, Paul Whiteman Orch, and Glenn Miller.

FANTASTIC MUSIC. I LOVE IT

I like Fletcher Henderson's piano

Greatest number in the world

Energia alla stato puro

Wow that swings

Fine as a porcupine!!!!!!!

ESTA EXELENTE....GRACIAS YOU TUBE

Incredible! Many thanks.

It’s 1:00 am and here I am listening to this. Oh yeah!!!!!!!!

Man, that swings.

wow this band could really swing

Great band

The best sax solo I've ever heard at 00:59 The way a sax SHOULD be played !!

This is real music.

Even better than the famous 1938 recording! Let's swing and let the good times roll.

If only Sondre and Tanya could boogie to this.......!

lindass musicas

Cool good. Music

this is a good song

Man if you can listen to this and stay still you better check your pulse because you may be dead!

some Harry James overtones but really awesome sounding!

Maybe eventually I'll be able to recognize this tune some time in the first three minutes!

Stan Kenton ride of the valkyries

A slow jive with this one.

Pas des mots only ears

If this is supposed to be the King of Swing, then what is Basie, the God of Swing?

Interesting to compare this version with that from the famous '38 concert. Despite being essentially the same arrangement, discounting the inclusion here of the "2 O'Clock Jump" riff, the two performances are very dissimiliar. The rhythm sections alone sound entirely different. I think both the rhythm and solos on '38 show a lot more character, but still, the Goodman band is never less than great. Toots Mondello is the stand-out here, I think.

Lionel Hampton en bateria?

versI prefer the 38 versions wit Jess Stacy ...he was an unlike much better pianist then zhe great F Henderson. Allthough this is also a thrilling record....Thanks

Weell, I can say that I still prefer the Miller version live, not to take anything away from Benny and his boys, but I love the drum work on the Miller version much better, especially the cymbals, really, really swing!! Guess that's the part of a Swing piece that I really listen for!! But, that's just me!!☺️

Now thatsSwing

Gut kann ist nun mal der Beste Jazzklarinettist te

Solid potato salad!!!!🎼

Was this in The Honeymooners?

I have to disagree with some of the other comments lauding this recording. Listening to the other numbers from the Goodman performance at the 1939 Carnegie Hall Concert, I can't help but think that Goodman just wasn't taking it all that seriously. Fletcher Henderson on piano? Lionel Hampton on drums (instead of Nick Fatool)? A clowned up version of "Tain't What You Do?" The only numbers that worked were by the Sextet.

1:00!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is that a man speaking in the beginning?

ｔｓのクレジットだけがありませんが、これはやはり、スタン・ゲッツではないでしょうか?同年のエアチェックでは、ソロも取っていますが、後年の彼のスタイルとは全く違う感じになってます。

A previous cove Glenn the best, swing band, nothing against, major Miller by the they were great, but a tad unfair to Benny, and the guys
