@MrElliotpaige Try Joe and Jimmy Liggins. Both had their own bands but boy could they swing.

I couldn't help but notice: This video posted to YouTube AUG. 9, 2007 or the 18th birthday of Nebraska Cornhuskers WR Niles Paul, who was just weeks old when I was college freshman in the fall of 1989. Back in the fall of 1989, a version of "How Long Must I Wait For You" was used in a commercial for ARROW shirts, featuring a female vocalist set against a foot-tapping broad waiting at the train station. Also born AUG. 9: NBA guard Derek Fisher, who like Louis Jordan (056-16-7050) is Arkansas-born

@MrElliotpaige Look for a compilation The Best of Louis jordan. Joe jackson did a good job but he played all the songs too fast so they lost their original swing. I like the compilation The Best of Louis Jordan. It's a great collection.

@MrElliotpaige Nice to hear that you've found this music the same way I did - through Joe Jackson's "Jumpin' Jive" LP.! Technically I don't think that this classes as swing or big band (though Louis did venture into the big band format towards the end of his heyday. Louis, as JJs album title suggests, was a prolific performer of jump and jive...as well as my favourite style Boogie Woogie (as in " Hoo Choo Ch'boogie" and Caldonia", Also check out Fats Waller and Lester Young...enjoy!

@MrElliotpaige It's jump blues. Pre-rock and roll.

sometimes he sounds like glenn miller and sometimes like little richard
-
This is one of the flat out most-fun songs ever written, and Jordan's a serious showman and player too. Wow.
-
Jackson did not write any songs on the jumpin jive record, but they were great covers.

Can anyone point me in the direction of more stuff like this?. I just bought Joe Jackson's jumpin Jive and fell in love with it!, I now realise that I want to get into this type of Jazz. What is the actuial term for it? is it classed as Swing music? Big Band?, also who should I listen to, both classic and contempary in the same style? Thanks!
