Description
This is the 1956 pressing of the Famous Carnegie Hall Jazz Concert by Benny Goodman, recorded in 1938 just as he was ascending the throne of the King of Swing. This is the very rare original 6-Eye Columbia pressing, and it sounds better than any other pressing before or after. Really a great sound. Both discs are in near flawless condition and play near perfectly. The cover is likewise in incredible shape, with barely the slightest shelfwear. Both original cardboard inner sleeves are included, and all is nearly immaculate. A top copy.
