Review by Timothy Harrington

Benny Goodman and His Orchestra – Bob White Minnie The Moocher’s Wedding Day Alright, buckle up because we’re diving into this wild ride of a 1937 jazz gem from Benny Goodman and his band of Big Band badasses. Released under the Victor label, this album is like stepping into a smoky ballroom where everyone's got two left feet but doesn’t care because the music slaps harder than your grandma’s mashed potatoes. Let’s talk tracks here—specifically “Minnie The Moocher’s Wedding Day” and “Bob White.” First off, “Minnie The Moocher’s Wedding Day” hits you right in the feels with its punchy brass section and swing vibes that make you wanna grab someone by the hand and twirl ‘em around till they’re dizzy. It’s not just another wedding tune—it’s chaotic joy wrapped in horns and rhythm. You can almost picture Minnie herself waddling down the aisle while Goodman’s clarinet goes nuts in the background. Like, how does he even get those notes to squeal like that? Feels like magic—but dirtier, grittier magic. Then there’s “Bob White,” which sneaks up on ya like a cat stalking a pigeon. This track has less flash but more swagger, letting the orchestra flex their muscles without overdoing it. The groove builds slow, teasing you until BAM—you’re hooked. The percussion pops in all the right spots, and the saxophones are smoother than cheap whiskey at a backwoods bar. Honestly, if I could bottle whatever energy they’ve got going on here, I’d sell it for twice the price of gas. What sticks with me about these tunes isn’t just the technical wizardry (though yeah, Benny’s crew was stacked with talent). It’s the vibe—the way they take something simple and turn it into pure auditory chaos. These songs feel alive, like they might jump outta the speakers and start cutting a rug in your living room. And honestly? That’s what makes ‘em unforgettable. But here’s the kicker: listening to this record now feels kinda surreal. In 1937, people were probably dancing to this stuff in fancy suits and dresses, thinking life was sweet as pie. Meanwhile, today, most folks wouldn’t know Benny Goodman from Ben & Jerry’s. Makes you wonder—what happened to us? Did we lose our groove somewhere along the way? Or maybe…just maybe…we’re still waiting for our own version of “Minnie The Moocher’s Wedding Day” to come crashing through the noise. Either way, crank this one loud enough, and you’ll forget all about tomorrow’s rent check. Trust me.
