bioshock brought me here..

its great games and movies are getting the new generation into jazz.

The future world will have cadilacs driving down the street with lots of swing,

blues, bigband and crooners on the radio. :D

....well i hope atleast...

@darkkoolman1 Well, my Cadillac (Jeep) already rocks down the road swinging to Annette, Jelly Roll, Duke, Satchmo and all the other jazz greats.

Okay, am I the only one who thinks that it's absolutely adorable how she always ends with "That's all!"?

@TimeVamp The "that's all" ending is mentioned by viewers in a few of my other Annette Hanshaw vids. Thanks for your comment.

Y'know, I'm not a fan of jazz normally but I absolutely adore Annette Hanshaw! Thank you, Sita Sings the Blues for introducing me!
