[Eliezer Kaplan <zelwel...>]

That's really kind of sad. Surely he must have done some klez when he was 
coming up. Otherwise why the Ziggy Elman thing?

  I forwarded the thread on Benny G. (not to be confused with Kenny) to one of 
our clarinetists, Ralph Wilder.  His reply gives an interesting family 
perspective to the question of whether Benny did or did not klez....(his reply 
below).
