From one of the greatest singers from the
Swing Era, this 3 CD retrospective features Helen & Benny Goodman's complete work together. Over half of these tracks have never been on CD.
===========================
"Helen Forrest was one of the primer vocalists during the Golden Age of the Big Bands: first with Artie Shaw and then with Benny Goodman after Shaw folded his band in 1939. This collection shows Goodman's band at its best and Helen at her prime. Included are songs that even I, an avid fan of both Goodman and Forrest, don't remember from those days. These songs are some of the best from that era, and Helen sings them as they should be sung. I heartily recommend it." by William R. Mcdonald
