Filmed during "Hollywood Hotel," this unusual medley combines the mighty Goodman band of 1937 ("I've Got a Heartful of Music" and "House Hop") with the BG Quartet ("Avalon"). The young Harry James takes solos on "Heartful" and "Hop," while Rudy Vallee serves as the on-camera emcee.

The camera catches the jumping 10-piece group Goodman led from 1959-1961 (built around the Red Norvo Quintet), but in this clip, the spotlight stays firmly on Benny and Red. "The World is Waiting For the Sunrise" was an early Goodman showcase in 1934, and was memorably re-recorded by BG with Mel Powell in 1942 (for Commodore). Benny was still playing this number brilliantly in the 1980s!
