message: When did he first record Sabre Dance? It's not even mentioned in the article... nevermind it's one of the most famous Jazz recordings ever.
It was recorded in 1948 and reached #7 that year according to Youtube (which I think we can't use as a reference on here).  Sorry, I was one of the naysayers who doubted its popularity.  Will try to find better reference sources.2602:30A:2C52:C170:317D:8DEB:1188:38D9 (talk) 16:46, 22 August 2015 (UTC)

message: Looking back on this article, there isn't a whole lot about the first band that was a continuation of Isham Jones' band and the one that recorded for Decca.  I seem to remember someone wrote about it but there were no references.Hipsterdoofus1 (talk) 01:13, 14 February 2009 (UTC)

message: If it really is 'Herrman', quite possible of course, there should be a '(sic)' after it. At the moment it just looks like a typo. Rothorpe (talk) 00:48, 19 March 2010 (UTC)

message: Why no Discography for Woody Herman? His recording career began in the early thirties and continued until his death in 1987.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.16.165.184 (talk) 16:25, 22 January 2012 (UTC)

I hope you find these examples informative.

message: No mention of The Golden Wedding by Woody Herman and His Orchestra. In Australia in the 1950s, at least, it was a very popular recording, probably more so than Woodchoppers' Ball. The drum solo by Frankie Carlson was hugely influential and popularly attributed to Gene Krupa.
It could be the recording made in NYC 13 February 1941. (Ref: Just Jazz ed. Sinclair Traill, Gerald Lascelles, pub. Peter Davies, London. c. 1957). Jeremy Sibson  gives the date as 9 November 1940 and notes that the score was an arrangement of Jean Gabriel-Marie's 1884 La Cinquantaine by James "Jiggs" Noble  Doug butler (talk) 22:19, 14 January 2018 (UTC)
