Query: ONE OF THE GREATEST AMERICAN HOUSE BANDS

Ben Selvin was a prolific recording director, whose entry in Rust's American Dance Band Discography occupies getting on for 50 pages. During the Depression years he was working for Columbia, and his house band provided work for some of New York's finest musicians. This first volume spans the period from mid-1931 to early 1932, plus the archetypal cheer-up song "Happy Days are Here Again" from March 1930. Sound is clear and bright, and the arrangements bristle with "pep".There's a definite Selvin sound, out of which soloists like Benny Goodman, Mannie Klein, Jack Purvis, Joe Venuti, and the Dorsey brothers, emerge with a hot chorus to enliven the proceeedings even more. But apart from his musical nous, I suspect Selvin had an understanding of how to position his musicians and mike them them, because the balance is superb. If you buy this you'll be looking out for Volume 2 to go with it.
