Big Band, Swing, 40's Music...
For lovers of Swing Era, 40's music...post your faves here. This is your grandparents music...but still such a joy to listen to. Nothing beats the old standards - now, this IS music!! I'll start with Artie Shaw's rendition of Glenn Miller's 'Moonglow'.
I know, it's prob 'cornball' stuff to most of you, but there's something so special about this music. I love it, and if it's new for you, I hope you learn to love it too.

Thank you so much for participating, Luv, and for your contribution - always loved The Andrews Sisters.
Here's a war song by a very young Peggy Lee. Quote:

Moonlight Serenade
I grew up listening to this music and I love it madly!
If someone wants to turn me to putty in their hands just dance with me in the living room to this song. . .

A very young Dorothy Dandridge...
...early in her career, before Hollywood came knocking and made her one of the most famous black women in movies - what a beauty she was!

This is way before my time. But this music will always have a very special and personal meaning to me.

For fans of music from the 1920-1950's this is a great radio program airing live on Saturday nights from 7 pm to 12 midnight. You can also listen to it during the week thru the archived files. Big band, swing and more. I love it.
