Bunny Berigan Orch.
Theme Song: "I Can't Get Started (with you)".
A Wisconsin-ite, Bunny formed his first (11 piece) band in 1936, which did cut a few sides for the old Brunswick Record Company.
In 1937, he augmented the group and opened in the Hotel Pennsylvania (New York City). The arranger was Joe Lipman and a new reedman - Georgie Auld was added. Incidentally, a new reed "person" was also added - Ruth Bradley on clarinet, and vocals too. Later on, Bunny hired an ex-tap dancer named Buddy Rich (drums) and Ray Conniff ('bone) and Joe Bushkin (piano). This group recorded for Victor Records.
The actual personnel of the 1938 Bunny Berigan band, when Jayne Dover was vocalist, consisted of:
Saxes: Milton Schatz, Georgie Auld, Gus Rivona, Clyde Rounds - Trumpets: Bunny, John Naptan, Harry Goodman - Trombones: Nat LeBrousky, Ray Coniff - Drums: Buddy Rich - Guitar: Hank Wayland - Bass: Dick Morgan - Piano: Joe Bushkin
Bunny finally called it quits in early 1940.
Tommy Dorsey hired him immediately. His stay only lasted 6 months - he left Dorsey, after an NBC radio broadcast, on Aug. 20, 1940. There were some dis-agreements. Bunny felt that he wasn't getting sufficient solo time, etc.
