[Dixielandjazz] Bunny Berigan records

[dwlit at cpcug.org]

Miller's early records are on a 4-CD set
"Glenn Miller vol. 1, 1926-1939", AVID

I really enjoy that early band, most especially a rousing chart of
"I got rhythm".
I like the overall arranging style, which was basically similar to that of
the Dorsey Brothers, early Shaw, Larry Clinton, even some of Casa Loma:
there were elements reminiscent of dixieland.

> reforming the orchestra that became famous sometime in '38 iirc.
