Benny Goodman was one of the big influences as a clarinet player. That's why I wanted the clarinet.
Lee Konitz I consider you as old as you look and feel. And in that case I feel - I feel I'm about 39, like Jack Benny. Joan Collins I could do John Wayne, Jack Benny, Jack Kennedy, Lyndon Johnson and entertain my friends. But I never seriously considered it as a career choice. Phil Hartman I have often been told that I have many of the same mannerisms as Jack Benny and certainly Bob Cummings. Dwayne Hickman I started off playing the clarinet, after I was inspired by listening to my dad's Benny Goodman records. Alvin Lee It's a spirit that was given me and the relationships and meeting all these great people, Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong; through Max I met a lot of people too. My first album was with Benny Carter. Abbey Lincoln Jack Benny was, without a doubt, the bravest comedian I have ever seen work. He wasn't afraid of silence. He would take as long as it took to tell the story. Bob Newhart My idol was Jack Benny and he was the master of subtlety and timing. Don Knotts No, that's not it. The first time we met was at Fat Tuesday's. Benny was playing, this was, I think in 1989? Benny Green When they asked Jack Benny to do something for the Actor's Orphanage - he shot both his parents and moved in. Bob Hope Working with Benny was important for me and for black musicians in general. Lionel Hampton |
