Hi, Christopher, That is what I suspected. I did think he had a 4-man sax section plus Benny on clarinet. History wins out on this one and I get to watch the ballet tonight...

BG's band didn't have one. However, it WAS common practice right after the war ended and there was sudden prosperity, for previously 4-man sax sections to add a baritone, who would read off the Alto 1 book, thus changing all the 4part block voicings into Supersax-type voicings. So give that a try, or else just sit out to be historically accurate.
