    There I was, about 14, Gene Krupa’s band was about to on the air at Atlantic City’s Steel Pier. I hurried up to the front row to watch this spectacle. The announcer opened the show. I stood my ground and took it all in. The Big Noise from Wonetka. Krupa was wild. What an act. The base player looked like he had put his fingers into a light socket. The audience slurped in the summer’s heat like it was Jersey clam chowder. It was so hot that I feared the pier hall would melt. My mother had come up to where I was standing. “So what do you think Ma?” “Great,” she assured me. “He plays that way because he’s hopped up.” The announcer gestured to the band to wrap it up. It was after all a family radio show.

    It was a briliant song, I would even say genius! I mean, it was so put together from start to finish. I was about 9 years old when I joined my father's orchestra on drums. By then, I had heard this over and over and only dreamed of playing it. Now, 65+ years later, I can only dream of having played it!
    A commentor somewhere said it best: Gene Krupa was the first 'superstar' drummer!

    • @bobmarlowe3390
      @bobmarlowe3390 Рік тому

      Even as great a drummer as Gene Krupa was, there was one better. Here's what he had to say about Chick Webb, talking about the night when Benny Goodman's band went head-to-head against Chick Webb's band at the Savoy Ballroom.
      “I’ll never forget that night - he [Chick Webb] just cut me to ribbons - made me feel awfully small. That man was dynamic; he could reach the most amazing heights. When he really let go, you had the feeling that the entire atmosphere in the place was charged. When he felt like it, he could cut down any of us.”

    To D. Beach--my dad actually DID play this at my grandmother's funeral! He stopped to to "take a quick phone call" in the middle of his eulogy for her--that was the cue for one of his friends to send him "Sing Sing Sing" thru the speakerphone. Everybody was at first stunned, and then laughed/cried at the same time.

    In 1965 my high school English teacher took the class to the auditorium to listen to Sing Sing Sing with a theory that analysis of this musical composition would lead to better English composition. Don't know if that worked but did introduce me to this great musical piece that has been adopted by succeeding generations. RIP GH.

      the only thing that could make a video like this better is if it and every single other kind of music didn't attract commenters to diminish other music, like the "real" music, "real" dancing jab. There are folk somehwere else commenting on some other music saying the same thing, and they mean their music and dance is real and that this above is trash. it's such a petty tribal reaction that robs people of the richness in all song and dance. I just don't get it. Nut it always brings me down just a little whenever i see someone hear music and need to respond by dissing someone else's music.

Watching a video like this just makes me feel charged up and alive. Sing Sing Sing is one of the greatest songs ever written, and certainly one of the most fiery. I'd love to be able to go and watch dancing somewhere, especially swing dancing and related styles from the first half of the twentieth century that were just so flamboyant and jubilant. Excelsior!

    *This* song, played by Benny and his orchestra in Carnegie Hall, is where we got the phrase, "Dancing in the aisles." Because that's what happened.

      Pedestrian, 'Excuse me Sir. Do you know how to get to Carnegie Hall?'
      'Sure, Son. Practice, practice, practice.'

      Yeah , he was good, but after that minute I had to cling to the music cuz the video chopped up into a ton of micro takes. Got annoying. But the music, immortal.

    For a time, I had a mobile DJ service, mainly weddings. . I'd wait till the last hour (after people had liquid courage...), get on the mic and say "OK lets see who can really dance" and hit play. Saw some REALLY good dancers !!! Plus... have to be in pretty good shape to dance like that for five minutes... !!!!

    My parents and uncle grew up in the Big Band era. Dad 1927, his brother 1921 and mom 1931. And when dad discovered the music of Scott Joplin, his father's music why he was enthralled! I come from an old family of another era.

    Everyone around the world should be dancing like this after Covid19 restrictions, lock downs, and reopening. Please keep the many souls who lost their lives to Covid19 complications and their families in your prayers and memories.
