Sell Your Benny Goodman Owned and Played Clarinet

Benny Goodman was a 20th century American jazz bandleader and clarinet player referred to as the “King of Swing”. Early in career he played in Ben Pollack’s band, for Broadway orchestras and recorded tracks with Billie Holiday. Goodman became a bandleader in 1934 and soon had his first number one hit with the piece “Moonglow”. During the second half of the 1930s Goodman had several more hits in the top 10, hosted a radio show and appeared in some films. As one of the first integrated bands during the 1930s, Goodman helped shatter the color barrier in music.

George Harrison’s Sitar From 1965, When The Beatles Recorded ”Norwegian Wood” — With an LOA From Pattie Boyd & the Only Beatles Sitar Ever to be Auctioned

George Harrison’s sitar from 1965, almost certainly the one he used to record ”Norwegian Wood”, the Beatles song that not only launched ”The Great Sitar Explosion” in rock music, but also deepened Harrison’s involvement with Indian music, its culture and the Hindu religion that would shape the rest of his life. More than any guitar that Harrison used during his career with the Beatles and as a solo artist, the sitar is perhaps the instrument most closely associated with Harrison, who was first introduced to it in August of 1965 by David Crosby before buying his own and using it to record ”Norwegian Wood” on 12 October 1965. Sold for $62,500.
