Yes. Harry James was a prominent big‑band leader of the swing era. A virtuoso trumpeter who rose to fame in the late 1930s and 1940s, he led a very popular orchestra (hits like “You Made Me Love You” and “I Had the Craziest Dream”), and is commonly listed alongside other major swing bandleaders such as Benny Goodman, Duke Ellington, Count Basie, and Glenn Miller.
