Description

Very rare and desirable 1934 recording of Louis Prima's 'Sing Sing Sing' that was spoecially recorded over 2 sides of a 12" shellac 78 by Benny Goodman (with Gene Krupa on drums)....here is the wiki entry.

On July 6, 1937, "Sing, Sing, Sing" was recorded in Hollywood with Benny Goodman on clarinet; Harry James, Ziggy Elman, and Chris Griffin on trumpets; Red Ballard and Murray McEachern on trombones; Hymie Schertzer and George Koenig on alto saxophones; Art Rollini and Vido Musso on tenor saxophone; Jess Stacy on piano; Allan Reuss on guitar; Harry Goodman on bass; and Gene Krupa on drums. The song was arranged by Jimmy Mundy. Unlike most big band arrangements of that era, limited in length to three minutes so that they could be recorded on one side of a standard 10-inch 78-rpm record, the version which Goodman’s band recorded was an extended work. The 1937 recording lasted 8 min 43 seconds, and it took up both sides of a 12-inch 78.

This rarely comes up for sale, the last copy sold for £57 last year.....This copy is in very nice condition indeed with only light marks etc.
Collection preferred, but I can post if required (with insurance).
