Goodman informs the unidentified ‘Ken’ that he has dissuaded Hampton from taking legal action, presumably against Columbia Records, over a perceived lack of personal publicity in connection with the 1950 release of the historic 1938 Carnegie Hall Jazz Concert: ‘I think I have taken care of the Hampton matter… it seems he was upset because he didn’t think he had received enough publicity in connection with the release of the album… I explained the matter as best I could and he said he would drop the proceedings.’ Vibraphonist Hampton was featured on only one track on the 1950 release of the concert, despite the significant part that he played as a member of the Benny Goodman Quartet that day. One page, turquoise ink on Goodman’s embossed airmail letterhead, 253 x 203 mm.
