  • Awesome. Well done. Swing is big with the kids these days. The classes hold younger and younger students. :)

  • Excellent.

  • I am looking for 8 cuts of Al Donahue, created at the Radio City Music Hall in around 1941, the very first soundie... I have 5 of them. My dad is in them and he is still around.. he's 89.

  • I love all music. Swing music always puts me in a good mood. Makes me want to really appreciate old music.

  • I want these times back. The modern music is shit.

  • "does anyone know the song right at the start of the vid?". Answer: It's the middle of the intro into the song "Sentimental Journey" by Les Brown and His Orchestra and sung by the 17 yr. old Doris Day. The version on the vid isn't the original but the original was recorded in 1945 and was a tremedous hit.

  • + rock

  • Ska developed from Swing and Jazz music.

  • So is swing anything like ska?

  • does anyone know the song right at the start of the vid?
