One of the original showmen in jazz, drummer Gene Krupa was already a star attraction with the Benny Goodman band of the 1930s but with his own band (from 1940 onwards), he achieved hit after hit, and his matinee idol looks helped him become a star. Taking in his work as a sideman and leader, this Proper Introduction gives you a a real flavour for Krupa's style, flair and talent.
