If he was able to meet any of the musicians, vocalists & band leaders who appeared, he asked them to sign their autograph on the page within the discography that listed a song they had performed at the show. I received it when he passed away in 2007. >> ONCE IN A LIFETIME OPPORTUNITY << List Of Signatures Kept At Beginning Of The Book The book itself is highly-annotated & well-loved. Ben carried it about like a Bible, using it for reference as he built his collection of Big Band, Swing & Jazz music from the late 40s & early 50s.
