CD ReviewsGet to Know Benny Bailey R. Salvucci | USA | 06/28/2005 (5 out of 5 stars) "Do yourself a favor. If you dig hip trumpet playing, especially in the best swing tradition, get this recording. I had heard about Benny Bailey, but had never actually heard him play. I couldn't believe what I missed. Here he sounds like a combination of Pops, Roy, Red Allen, and Warren Vache, if you can believe that. God rest his soul, he died in April. Here he does tunes mostly associated with Pops, but the band is great and the thing swings like mad. I only wish I had heard him playing sooner."
