Bunny Berigan, in our opinion the great est trumpet man to ever blow a note, would take the second, or hot chair. Roy “Little Jazz” EI dridge, with the Gene Krupa gang, would play third' horn, and Sonny Dunham would fill the fourth spot nicely. That’s a ver satile, powerful section. Sax section would be headed by lead altoist Benny Carter, capable of doubling on trumpet, clarinet, piano, vibes, arranging, etc. Cole man Hawkins is the nation’s top tenor man, and he’d play the sec ond tenor chair. Put Johnny Hodges (Duke Ellington) on third alto, Bob (Ex-Saunders King man) on fourth tenor and E. Car ney on baritone sax. (Another Duke ace.)
