Democracy Now's Amy Goodman, Sharif Abdel Kouddous

Washington, D.C. is an American broadcast
journalist, syndicated columnist and author.
A 1984 graduate of Harvard University, Goodman is
best known as the principal host of Pacifica
Radio's Democracy Now! program, where she has been
described by the Los Angeles Times as "radio's
voice of the disenfranchised left".[1] Coverage of
the peace and human rights movements — and
support of the independent media — are the
hallmarks of her work. As an investigative
journalist, she has received acclaim for exposés
of human rights violations in East Timor and

| Benny Goodman - Roll 'Em (1942) |
 |
This clip comes from "The Powers Girl" (1942). The
arrangement appears to be the Jimmy Mundy revision
Benny commissioned in 1941 of the Mary Lou
Williams classic, originally immortalized by BG's
'37 band. Decimated by the WWII draft, this
transitional ensemble was trashed by critics as
one of Goodman's weakest...but six decades later,
Benny and the band sound awfully good indeed!
Bonus: Watch for George Murphy and Dennis Day.
("The Powers Girl" also gave moviegoers a
relatively rare opportunity to see Benny sans
specs.)

| Benny Goodman and Red Norvo (1960) |
 |
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!
