  • Thanks for posting!

  • Lunceford's name should be as well known as Ellington or Basie. Alas, he's just a footnote. But what a simply divine footnote. Oh, I love his work.

  • Best Lunceford ever! Do you have any songs with solos by Willie Smith?

  • Best Lunceford ever!

  • Fantastic! I love the old swing songs that have this vaguely sinister sound to them. As if you just might be on your way to hell -- and you wouldn't want it any other way.

  • @cliftonmontgomery Well said!

    

  • @cliftonmontgomery Only the hotter numbers have that dark raw passion! This is a good example maybe also try Fletcher Henderson the stampede 1926 version.

  • W O W !!! :D

  • Yowza!!

  • Nice post!

  • Absolutely fabulous !

  • If I was trying to explain to someone what swing was, I'd use this recording.

  • Look around for good versions by Ted Lewis and James Kok if you can find them (I think they're both on CD by those respective bands).

  • Kok's version is the best in my opinion...great band!

  • What a composition! Amazing!

  • I actually like this better that "White Heat" not nearly so frantic. The nighthawks do a terrific version of this.

  • Tnx! It's really great song! :D

  • This is excellent! Thanks for the post!
