Best Benny Goodman recordings

Further reading of the liner notes reveals another reason why the Broadcast recordings are better.

The Carnegie Hall concert was recorded with one microphone hung way up in the ceiling. It was not planned to use the recording for a record release to the public. The Broadcast recordings benefited from careful microphone set up and balancing by the audio engineers of the radio stations doing the broadcast.

so what is the exact name of the broadcats CD?
thanks

Audphile1...Amazon.com has a CD set titled Carnegie Hall Concert with the same cover art as the LP set. But I don't know if the music is from the original recordings made in Carnegie, or from the broadcast recordings. The CD has a spoken introduction by Benny, which is on the Broadcast set, but the sequence of tracks does not match either LP set.

I encourage you to research this further and try to get the Broadcast recordings. It is worth the effort.

Perhaps other Audiogon members can contribute info.

I have that disc. I think that is not the Broadcast version you were referring to though. I'll keep on searching. Thanks!
