Although "crooning" refers to a particular time and style...other related videos are also encouraged - including (but not limited to) hot jazz, sweet jazz, early blues, dance bands, british dance bands, early swing and early movie musicals and pre-code film footage from the 20's and 30's!!!

An example of some good "fits" for Crooners & Songbirds are:
Russ Columbo, Whispering Jack Smith, Lee Morse, AL Bowlly, Gene Austin, Greta Keller, Ruth Etting, Sam Brown, Ambrose, Sophie Tucker, Marlene Dietrich, Josephine Baker, Helen Morgan, Rudy Vallee, Mildred Bailey, Bessie Smith, Libby Holman, Tiny Tim, Ethel Waters, Hoagy Carmichael, Bing Crosby, The Boswell Sisters, to name just a few...
