A fantastic jam session of "Honeysuckle Rose" featuring some of the icons of the Big Band Era including: Tommy Dorsey, Artie Shaw, Count Basie, Lionel Hampton, Buddy Rich, Ziggy Elman, Ed McKinney, Illinois Jacquet and Les Paul! It was recorded live for the program "Command Performance" on September 30, 1944.
It starts off a little scattered as all of the musicians find their groove within the song, then features some nice solos. It now showing on our Youtube Channel. Enjoy!
