still hold the lead chair. 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.) Just for effects, Ben
ny Goodman would round out the
section on calinet, and he can
double on alto.
That’s the dream band. Con
tact arrangers Sy Oliver, Jimmy
Mundy, Ralph Yaw, Eddie Sau
ter, Billy Strayhorn, and you’ve
got the best in the business. Vo
calists? For sweet stuff, we’ll
choose Dick Haymes (Tommy
Dorsey) and Peggy Mann (Ted
dy Powell.) Swing? Lena Horne
(movies) and Jimmy Rushing,
Count Basie . . . You’d like the
outfit, too.
