Bennie Morton - Stinson 506 (1945)
From wikipedia…
Benny Morton (January 31, 1907 – December 28, 1985), born in
New York City , was a jazz
trombonist most associated with the swing genre. He was praised by fellow
trombonist Bill Watrous among others.
One of his first jobs was working with Clarence Holiday, and
he appeared with Clarence's daughter Billie Holiday towards the end of her life
on The Sound of Jazz. Morton was a member of pianist Teddy Wilson's Sextet
throughout the early 1940s. In the 1960s he was part of the Jazz Giants band:
"Wild" Bill Davison (cornet), Herb Hall (clarinet and alto), Claude
Hopkins (piano), Arvell Shaw (bass) and Buzzy Drootin (drums). They toured the U.S.
and frequently in Canada
where they did some recording for Sackville Records.
Towards the end of the 60's he played with an offshoot of
the Jazz Giants under the leadership of Drootin, called Buzzy's Jazz Family,
with Herman Autrey replacing Davison, Buzzy's nephew Sonny Drootin replacing
Hopkins, and Eddie Gibbs replacing Shaw. That stated he is probably best known
for his work with Count Basie and Fletcher Henderson.
On February 23,
1934 , Morton led an outstanding session of 4 songs that were issued
under his own name (Benny Morton & His Orchestra) which was made up mostly of members of Fletcher Henderson's and Don Redman's band.
