The band here has four trumpets and three trombones but trumpeter Roy Eldridge is not yet in the band, and, if my eyes do not deceive me, Anita O'Day isn't either, while saxist Sam Donahue is no longer in the band, so this is late 1940 or early 1941. The trumpet soloist must be Shorty Sherock, and the Artie Shaw-like clarinetist is in all probability Sam Musiker, one of the mainstays of the Krupa band.
Oh I though Sam Donahue was still in the band during that time. But yes, this came out in the short film called America's Ace Drummer Man that cam out in 1940
I heard Popeye himself was a little high during the making of some of those cartoons. He used to forget his lines a lot but the producers of the show didn't want to say anything in fear that he would down a can of spinach and kick their arses.
That is most definitely NOT Ziggy Ellman, as someone has said. I know what he looked like. If you want to see Ziggy playing, go on CZcams, and click on, " Hawaiian War Chant," by TD, and you will see Buddy, and Ellman. I would still like to know who was the trumpet soloist.
Ziggy didn't wear glasses, as this fellow does. Ten years later, in, " The Benny Goodman Story," Ziggy wore glasses, and really couldn't play anymore. In fact, he was shown in that movie playing a solo, but, it was really Manny Klein playing the trumpet.
Earle Schecter Ziggy Elman did wear glasses. In fact, if you watch some of the Tommy Dorsey orchestra playing in some Warner Bros. and MGM movies (Like Dubarry Was A Lady, Girl Crazy, Ship Ahoy, etc.), you see Ziggy wearing glasses.
Krupa had so much going for him swinging drummer dynamite showmanship and like I said many times previously Gene as a jazz drumming magnet enough said
Jazz would not be what it is without drummers like Gene Krupa...
Loads like him back then , it’s jazz groove with the rest of the bands , joe jones , cozy Cole , and the king chick Webb
Gene Krupa inspired ALL drummers!
He was very easy on the eye too. Phew!
Thank you very much. Great to hear and see the drummer that inspired Keith Moon.

Yes, the clarinetist is Sam Musiker, swing and klezmer musician...

The singer at this time was Irene Day.
@@paradiddlemcflam7167 True!
nobody can top Krupa on the tom toms
I think the best comment I ever read about this video was : "I wish my face was as hot as this song." Always makes me laugh.
Thank you sir. 🐺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺
Adam I really enjoyed this vid. Thanks for putting it up.
yeah ! Thankz !
thanks
Love it! For some reason though, it makes me want to get high and watch "Popeye" cartoons!
I heard Popeye himself was a little high during the making of some of those cartoons. He used to forget his lines a lot but the producers of the show didn't want to say anything in fear that he would down a can of spinach and kick their arses.
Swingers gonna swing, baby

Aren't those Wartime drums? Looks like lugs fashioned from wood rather than metal.
Nah, it may look like it due to how low res the video is, but these are chrome Slingerland streamline lugs.
From What year is this. I Guess it in the 1940’s since GK look Young.
I’m pretty sure that this came out in 1940.
Sandy Nelson...” Let There Be Drums “, must have been influenced by Gene’s toms.
I am curios to know the name of the trumpet soloist?
So am I.

1) not lost
2) 'live'
O
From What year is this?
Not sure, hence I didn't add any date. Maybe someone here has more knowledge about that?
@@retroflow44 I think he was Rudy Novak, who played with Gene's band in 1940.
