The Whoopee Makers was a catch-all name for a series of recording dates made by mostly white jazz musicians in New York in the late 1920's and early 30's. These recordings feature mostly members of the Ben Pollack Orchestra of the period, including Jimmy McPartland, Jack Teagarden, Glenn Miller, Benny Goodman, Fud Livingston, Bud Freeman, Ray Bauduc and Pollack himself, with a few appearances by the Dorsey Brothers and others.
