    love the music and vibe !!! ... would love to time travel back and see & hear the real 1920's and 1930's big band swing orchestras , smoke an unfiltered Pall Mall (or Dunhill ) and do a real old fashion bourbon !!!

    Love this music. Nothing beats the BIG Band Sound!

      Justine, this isn't so much the Big Band Sound (think mid 30's to late 40's) as much as it was the 20's sound of orchestral jazz.

      Why does Alex no longer perform at the Savoy. Secrets or maybe 🤔

    I stayed in January and returned to the hotel to this. Just made the stay all the more magical.

    This orchestra isn't a copy of the originals as they're actually better. Amazing!

      The song is called "I've got feelin' your foolin' " and it's on Alex's CD 'Jazznocracy' released in 2015.
      A beautiful song performed so superbly by Alex and his Orchestra.
