My grandma used to have this plastic flower pot that would play this first track.. If you ever pushed the button to play that song you had to dance with grandma. Been a few years since she has passed but still wish to dance with her again. Love ya grandma :(
cheerful music and dancing helped people cope better with the dreadful events of WW1 and WW2 and Economical Depression. whereas rap music is at least for me depressing and some metal or rock even if they were composed in times of great prosperity

🙂Yo tenia 10 años cuando empece a oir esta clase de música, y si tu en la actualidad tienes 16, eso quiere decir que no solo tienes buen gusto, sino que tienes sentido músical, escucha cada instrumento, y te daras cuenta que cada uno es maestro, y juntos pues es una exploción de buena música, te felicito por tu buen gusto. Nota: Hoy tengo 71 años, y aprecio diferentes tipos de música, pero siempre de la buena.✌️
Music class was a big thing in public school...jr. high & high school San Francisco. We had gewat teachers, some still alive. Mant students went on into music careers whether entertainment or themselves teaching. Too much emphasis and funding for sports.
I'm a 30 year old who was taught how to ballroom dance by my grandmother. Because she taught me how to swing dance, I was able to teach my at-the-time girlfriend. Not surprisingly, we're married now. Thanks grandma!
Whilst I definitely wasn't born in the wrong era, I so wish swing was a thing these days. I'm 40 years old and I'd so fucking dig to go to a bar, order a large wine and listen to this live
I was born in these 50s. Growing up with this kind of Big Bands music. My mum is 96yrs now. So blessed, to have her still around us 🥰😍 Love to listen to this style of music. Feel like that kid I once were..🤪 My dad (r.i.p), sometimes took our mum by the hand.. and lead her from the kitchen into the livingroom and danced with her too this music. I love to watch them dancing. And the were so good 🎉😍 Mum love to sing the oldies.., while cooking diner for us. Our childhood felt so safe and loving. Never forget.. how save, cared for, happy and loving our life was, while growing up. And now, I myself, are hopping to my 73 years birthday.. Still having those sweet memories of an era gone by.. Thank you for the music.. and the precious memories, that comes with this music. Thank you so much.. 🙏🥰🌺🌞
@@pincessdogg5222 I understand your question, but her situation isn't like that. She was not receiving aggressive, inappropriate treatment; only antibiotics, steroids, and oxygen. She spent 6 days in the hospital, and has been at home since then. Because of her dementia, she gets agitated easily, and listening to this type of music calms her down better than anything.
We thought rock was the best, and we were so cool, but my mom once said, '...you should've seen your aunt Shirley on the dance floor, jitterbugging to that swing!.'
@@Skyluzz Think you missed a couple steps there lol. Lackadaisy is a reference to it, not the other way around. Calling someone a cool cat was their way of saying some one was real neat back in the 1920s
My grandpa played this music every single day I did my homework because it helped me focus. He passed away in 2012 and every time I listen to anything in this Era It puts a huge smile on my face and a tear in my eyes. He instilled a very high respect for all music in me and I try to pass that on to my children. I hope that this music never disappears.
Hopefully one day your grandchildren and maybe their grandchildren will be saying the same thing about your, and how they remember you listen to this music and the fond memories it gave them.
My father was real bad... he even didn't know who I was. Put the big bands on a tape and bought it to the hospital and played the tape...he named the big bands and sang the words even though it was just music. The last 7 months of his life I tried to bring back the old days That's what this music does God bless you and family.
I'm a child of the 1950s, matured in the 1960s. While I love the Beatles, before they ever came along this was the music that was played almost 24/7 in my home via WNEW radio in NYC and my father's (a part-time musician) many album collections. This was the music of my parents' generation (Depression/WWII). They adored it and danced to it. This is the first music I heard as a baby/child, and it's become hard-wired in my DNA. Like my parents, who are gone now, I adore it, and always will.
I am 52 years old and I love this music now. I didn’t too much as a teen in the 80’s. But I sure wish my grandma was here so we could enjoy this music while talking and cooking together now that I’m older. This music is pretty much all I want to listen to these days.
As a Homecare Physical Therapist, I see a lot of homebound seniors that need low impact cardio. I have my patients dance to this music. It's a fun, upbeat way to exercise!
I absolutely loveeeeee the '40'...music..style of hair or clothes omggg ...I'm 62 pretty sure I was born wrong era 😁 I have adult kids everyone in their 30's and they also love this and all music...from classical to classic rock..everything in-between..raising the Gbabies the very same thing! Draeden Rin I'm soooo happy you have this wonderful memory..keep it always in your heart! Always remember the happiness and love from all your memories! Be blessed!
only insane people hate big band. i still have no clue at all as to why it went out of style. music inspires me as a writer and theatre kid the 1950s truly were the golden age. I LOVE THIS VIDEO ❤❤👏👏
My parents taught me to Jive and Jitterbug. They would tell me of how they would go out dancing and have a circle of people watch them dance. So I in turn taught my girls to Jive and Jitterbug. When one daughter had her first Grade 6 dance, I asked how was the Dance? She replied... it was pretty boring! Why no one asked you too dance? Boys can be shy... so don’t let it get you down.. no Dad she said it wasn’t that... all the boys wanted to do was hug me close and step around in circles over and over again...no one threw me up in the air, no twisting or shaking your legs and tossing me under your leg.. it was boring... I bit my tongue in asking what boy just wanted to hug you I want to talk to him...
Great though, that you gave your daughter that culture, so it can be passed on. My parents were also avid dancers, and taught us also, and HOW GRATEFUL I am for that!!!
Among you, loving listeners, there must be many native American people : I just want to thank you (or better your Army bands) for having brought this music to France during and after WWII. True also that it is the right music to listen to nowadays of lockdown. Be patient, we will dance again and we can try ourselves, even alone in our living rooms, to a little dance and singing. Cheer up and happy new year from the South of France.

@@CokesAndTokes Sorry, I didn't mean to be rude. I'm only a great fan of American Big Bands and of the American Song book. As a teenager (let's say 65 years ago), my first LP (I still have it but don't remember how it came to me in the lonely country village where I lived then) was "Capitol Jazz Classics Vol 15 - Bebop Spoken Here, Benny Goodman & Charlie Barnet. As regards "genocide", I think I've learnt about it as a great fan also of Western movies genre. Let me sincerely wish you music and dance to celebrate the coming Holiday season's. Agnès
That's great! This music is from my parents time and so that makes me kinda old. But it took me till I was around 30 to start appreciating it. There is so much great music around. Why not enjoy all you can?
My mom and dad listened to big bands when my sister's and I were little in the 70's. I learned how to swing dance at home, and I still think it's the coolest music and dancing around
Esplendorosa musica ,tiempos inolvidables ,las vestimentas ,los peinados ,el comportamiento de aquellos tiempos ,soy viejuja pero no de esos tiempos ,aqui escuchando feliz ,gracias por compartir con nosotros estas maravillas de musica super alegres y bailables ,yo mentalmente bailo y vuelo por los aires jajajajajaj yaa un saludo para todos ustedes chaooo ,de Chile C.

Was not born until '56. Fell in love with swing while in high school, playing trombone in our Jazz Band. Our band director was a big fan of the big bands, and passed that on to many of us.
In The Mood is one of the GREATEST. Glen Miller played this in London while the city was being Bombed during WW2. With all the blood and killing people had hope and danced to the Big bands all night as if there was no tomorrow. A lesson the young of today should emulate. Smile and be Happy and spread love....Todays problems are nothing compared with what the 30s 40s and 50s went through. Big bands Great music playing Evergreen music. !!!So Enjoy and Play On !!!
Really enjoyed this music, my dad in the last year of his life had to live in an assisted living facility. I remember going to visit one day and most of the residents were in the common area, like a large living room area music like this was being played over the music system, the ladies were snapping their fingers and swaying to the music, most of the men were like my dad in a wheel chair, but he gad a grin on his face from ear to ear I could see how happy this music made him. Now I am fast approaching that possibility myself. My war era was vietnam I can only imagine sitting in the common area listening to White Rabbit by Jefferson Airplane, In A Godda Da Vida by Ironbutterfly and I Feel Like I'm fixing to Die Rag by Country Joe and The Fish.
so get this. thanks to a weirdo video game series called FALLOUT (based on 50's american ideals and the cold war era and a WHAT IF post-nuclear war scenario), a bunch of people in their 20s and 30s have discovered and are into this sort of music. in particular i blast big band lately whilst playing world of warships. there i am on the deck of battleship USS California sending shells flying at the japanese while blasting brass.
I'm only 18 but I always love old music and even started collecting vinyls of big hits like The Mills Brothers and Sinatra. They always hold such a dear place in my heart. This was really the golden style of music.
were all talking about our grandparents and how they're either passed or hospitalized, their music was actually really good. when Gen Z gets old, were gonna see this but instead its gonna be memes and vines, and probably the Rickroll that were going to hear as our grandkids play them while were in the hospital. the older generations songs are so much better if we were to remember them by these. Our kids and grandkids are going to remember us from the Rickroll and other countless music genres that are definitely more cringe as time goes on. But great music nonetheless, too bad I'm like 5 years late to listening to this.🤣
Acá en Colombia conocemos esta música de jazz como Fox trop y vaya si se bailaba en todo baile que se respetará junto con el Fox argentino el mambo el chachachá el vals bailarín de estos ritmos era de otro nivel como se rayaba baldosas tirando paso goce total juventud divino tesoro no hemos envejecido en vano nos quedan estos lindos recuerdos felicitaciones bendiciones para todos gracias por subir estos vídeos desde Colombia amén chao
my teacher started playing big band music and everyone started laughing at it :( i love how this kind of music sounds, it gives it the old feeling and just sounds so cool
My Amazing Dad played with the band at the old palas de dance in Bridgend south Wales he was the drummer and he was still playing his drums at the amazing age of 82 he was a remarkable musician and the best dad ever i pray that he’s playing with the big band up in heaven now ( Love you so much dad and miss you more than words can convey)
I was so damn lucky to grow up with a mom who played piano and played these 78's of the big bands, all that while I was listening to the rise of Rock and Roll in the 60's and 70's in America!!! I had the best of both worlds!!! Mom would try to teach me to jitterbug dance with her. Unfortunately I had two left feet, but she danced anyways!!! Brings a smile to my face all these years later!!! I miss her so much.
Renaissance goth with a deep love of swing and jazz. I wasn't put onto jazz by my family either, they all love country. I don't know how I ended up like this.🤣
This is a superb collection of vintage swing. There are a lot of incredible numbers that are rare in here. I wish I could have this whole thing on record. I love to hear things that are not overplayed. Well done!
A todos Uds, amantes de esta música , no estamos grandes de edad, tenemos la juventud acumulada. Y un corazón muy fortalecido. DIOS Les bendiga a todos Uds. Gracias

As a kid my had a dance band, he had also had the Army Dance Band after the war in Europe, anyway when I was very young, the women would come get me to dance with them to this music, I still dance to it every chance I have. Listen all th time
My Dad played in a dance band before the war. After the war he got busy with family and career but never lost his love of this. He and my Mom played these records and taught us to dance to it. Happy to see a a small but loyal following for the music and swing dance.
Concordo com Carlos Sousa!!!Quem tem ouvidos,que ouça essa oportunidade única de conhecer músicas de altíssima qualidade!!! Obrigada!!!Abraços aqui do Brasil!!!❤😊😂
Эта музыка никогда не выйдет из моды.В ней страсть , любовь к жизни и негаснущий оптимизм.Пусть меняется мода , вырастают новые поколения , создают новые шедевры, но эта музыка, как любовь к жизни не выйдет из моды никогда!
Some would argue a simpler, and better time - strange considering what was going on in Europe and eventually the world. But maybe it was? I listen to this era all of the time, nothing better to dance to, or listen to.
I love this music and it’s nice to hear other people do to and I just want to say how much skill musicians had back in the 1940s because I’m a sax player myself and they are all hard scores to play no flex or anything but I played atleat 10 of those songs in Germany and it was a experience I’ll never forget swing is a magical thing !! 🎵 ❤️
The money wasn't there to support big bands. Inflation after the war simply put them out of business. I remember Lester Lanin as being the last of the big bands touring in the early 1950's.
Loving this old style of music. It just makes you feel like sitting in such an old swing bar, the big band standing on the stage and you just can’t stop your feed from wanting to dance
I think this is nostalgia for all of us... memories of our grandparents. I remember my siblings and I playing my grandparents' 72 Lps on their victrola. Such a carefree memory of a better time.
Listening to Glen Miller in the mood as a child at my grandma's house with the dancing flower was always a core memory, of course the batteries have died but I'm glad I found this song so the memory lives on :)
From my youth this music was played thought our home radio, and records. Uncles on piano and guitar getting down..amusement park ballrooms Friday and Saturday local 'big' band gigs, dancing till wee hours of the morning. Denver was a stop over for bands heading east and west. Parts of The Glenn Miller story was filmed in Denver. the 30's and 40's the "solid hep times" in the Rockies. I lived it then and yet living it now thanks to gigs like this.
Catch the you tube of the swing girls? Japanese girls playing swing music. Hard to believe this was the music of WWII and they play it and enjoy it as much as we do. My mom and dad lived on the east coast in the late 30's and 40's and this was the standard music in our house for decades. My dad wouldn't let a radio in the house as long as his 78's were still good.

That's great! This music is from my parents time and so that makes me kinda old. But it took me till I was around 30 to start appreciating it. There is so much great music around. Why not enjoy all you can?
It is August 1 2020 and the world is in crisis but this music is timeless.
Thank You so much. These tunes are 100% better than the junk that plays today! Plus I am YOUNG lol
My grandpa passed away to this music he would listen to it all the time I cry every time I hear these tracks ❤️
My mom and dad listened to big bands when my sister's and I were little in the 70's. I learned how to swing dance at home, and I still think it's the coolest music and dancing around
Esplendorosa musica ,tiempos inolvidables ,las vestimentas ,los peinados ,el comportamiento de aquellos tiempos ,soy viejuja pero no de esos tiempos ,aqui escuchando feliz ,gracias por compartir con nosotros estas maravillas de musica super alegres y bailables ,yo mentalmente bailo y vuelo por los aires jajajajajaj yaa un saludo para todos ustedes chaooo ,de Chile C. H. I Chi jajajaj
¡es verdad! esta sí que es música...inolvidable, increíble y alegre.
Was not born until '56. Fell in love with swing while in high school, playing trombone in our Jazz Band. Our band director was a big fan of the big bands, and passed that on to many of us.
ditto, but as a trumpet player. My mother played her 78s all the time talked about when she saw all the bands.
Nací el 14 de Octubre de 1956 y mis padres oían está EXCELENTE música. Soy mexicano 🇲🇽🎉❤🇲🇽
In The Mood is one of the GREATEST. Glen Miller played this in London while the city was being Bombed during WW2. With all the blood and killing people had hope and danced to the Big bands all night as if there was no tomorrow. A lesson the young of today should emulate. Smile and be Happy and spread love....Todays problems are nothing compared with what the 30s 40s and 50s went through. Big bands Great music playing Evergreen music. !!!So Enjoy and Play On !!!
Very motivational, sir. Too bad we are missing the "dance" part, but I believe we still can "smile and be happy".
My mom LOVES that song
Good stuff. Miller himself was killed during the war. He accomplished so much in a narrow window
I so enjoyed The movie the “Swing Kids” it put history and music into perspective of how each affected the lives of so many.
I Will Always Remember That Day My Dad Told Me The Story of The Song While Showing Me How They Danced to In The Mood.
Having a glass of beer and a little tot this evening I have loved listening to this music. Far better than all this modern rubbish.
There is great music being made today, you’re just to lazy to find it.

PRECIOSA MUSICA...NUNCA MORIRA...CUANDO LOS JOVENES LA DESCUBRAN..SE MARAVILLARAN....PONGAMOSLA DE MODA OTRA VEZ....
Es màs fàcil que un elefante pase por ojal, que a los jóvenes les agrade ésta música!
Really enjoyed this music, my dad in the last year of his life had to live in an assisted living facility. I remember going to visit one day and most of the residents were in the common area, like a large living room area music like this was being played over the music system, the ladies were snapping their fingers and swaying to the music, most of the men were like my dad in a wheel chair, but he gad a grin on his face from ear to ear I could see how happy this music made him. Now I am fast approaching that possibility myself. My war era was vietnam I can only imagine sitting in the common area listening to White Rabbit by Jefferson Airplane, In A Godda Da Vida by Ironbutterfly and I Feel Like I'm fixing to Die Rag by Country Joe and The Fish.
Вы добрый и хороший человек! Всех Вам благ!
@Sean Brown He is gone. Read it again.
so get this. thanks to a weirdo video game series called FALLOUT (based on 50's american ideals and the cold war era and a WHAT IF post-nuclear war scenario), a bunch of people in their 20s and 30s have discovered and are into this sort of music. in particular i blast big band lately whilst playing world of warships. there i am on the deck of battleship USS California sending shells flying at the japanese while blasting brass.
Smoking a joint and eating Doritos along with Jefferson Starship and Led Zeppelin
#old guy this kind of music reminds me the old movie theater in our small town in the phils. which first play this kind of music before screening.
Having grown up with this music, and discovering this site, is like finding the pot of gold, at the end of the rainbow! 🥰
@Vishal Chan nice username!
Lo
@Vishal Chan It is for a Facebook site dedicated to the great songwriters of our times.

My grandma was a ballroom dancer, very passionate, driven, and competitive when it came to her dancing.
I'm only 18 but I always love old music and even started collecting vinyls of big hits like The Mills Brothers and Sinatra. They always hold such a dear place in my heart. This was really the golden style of music.
were all talking about our grandparents and how they're either passed or hospitalized, their music was actually really good. when Gen Z gets old, were gonna see this but instead its gonna be memes and vines, and probably the Rickroll that were going to hear as our grandkids play them while were in the hospital. the older generations songs are so much better if we were to remember them by these. Our kids and grandkids are going to remember us from the Rickroll and other countless music genres that are definitely more cringe as time goes on. But great music nonetheless, too bad I'm like 5 years late to listening to this.🤣
Acá en Colombia conocemos esta música de jazz como Fox trop y vaya si se bailaba en todo baile que se respetará junto con el Fox argentino el mambo el chachachá el vals bailarín de estos ritmos era de otro nivel como se rayaba baldosas tirando paso goce total juventud divino tesoro no hemos envejecido en vano nos quedan estos lindos recuerdos felicitaciones bendiciones para todos gracias por subir estos vídeos desde Colombia amén chao
My 22 year old daughter loves this music and no matter what city she’s in, she finds a swing dance club. West Coast shag is her favorite.
my teacher started playing big band music and everyone started laughing at it :( i love how this kind of music sounds, it gives it the old feeling and just sounds so cool
My Amazing Dad played with the band at the old palas de dance in Bridgend south Wales he was the drummer and he was still playing his drums at the amazing age of 82 he was a remarkable musician and the best dad ever i pray that he’s playing with the big band up in heaven now ( Love you so much dad and miss you more than words can convey)
In the mood is a banger 80 years later
Love this music. 90s babies but with the way of how life was back then;
I wish I lived in that time period.
I was so damn lucky to grow up with a mom who played piano and played these 78's of the big bands, all that while I was listening to the rise of Rock and Roll in the 60's and 70's in America!!! I had the best of both worlds!!! Mom would try to teach me to jitterbug dance with her. Unfortunately I had two left feet, but she danced anyways!!! Brings a smile to my face all these years later!!! I miss her so much.
Regards from Barcelona, Spain
I'm forever grateful that Jehovah has blessed me with the gift of music.
❤️
@Fred Limkin hi. Doing well, thanks! How are you?
Renaissance goth with a deep love of swing and jazz. I wasn't put onto jazz by my family either, they all love country. I don't know how I ended up like this.🤣
Was born in the wrong era, 17 years old and i can name all these tracks by heart
This music takes me back to when cartoons were cartoons. I love it!!
Disney or Warner Brothers,MGM or Universal studio,or Paramount Pictures ? take your pick
This is a superb collection of vintage swing. There are a lot of incredible numbers that are rare in here. I wish I could have this whole thing on record. I love to hear things that are not overplayed. Well done!
Agree
A todos Uds, amantes de esta música , no estamos grandes de edad, tenemos la juventud acumulada. Y un corazón muy fortalecido. DIOS Les bendiga a todos Uds. Gracias
I'm a 53 Whipper Snapper ❤ Big band!
Had a laugh at "accumulated youth" gracias

What ever happened to Music such as this? My Dad , loved this music, and his love of this excellent music, gave me a true understanding of true music as I grew up! Whom ever put this together, Has my "MY" gratefull-ness for this web site.......God bless you whom ever you are! Richard Krause
Excellent collection with big bands. Manny thanks from Argentina!
My Oma who passed away a few years had the first song as her phone’s ringtone. That was a good blast from the past.
As a kid my had a dance band, he had also had the Army Dance Band after the war in Europe, anyway when I was very young, the women would come get me to dance with them to this music, I still dance to it every chance I have. Listen all th time
My Dad played in a dance band before the war. After the war he got busy with family and career but never lost his love of this. He and my Mom played these records and taught us to dance to it. Happy to see a a small but loyal following for the music and swing dance.
Concordo com Carlos Sousa!!!Quem tem ouvidos,que ouça essa oportunidade única de conhecer músicas de altíssima qualidade!!!
Obrigada!!!Abraços aqui do Brasil!!!❤😊😂
Feliz Navidad!!!!!
Terrific playlist to listen to while working on my 1938 Ford Deluxe!
Эта музыка никогда не выйдет из моды.В ней страсть , любовь к жизни и негаснущий оптимизм.Пусть меняется мода , вырастают новые поколения , создают новые шедевры, но эта музыка, как любовь к жизни не выйдет из моды никогда!
No way you can listen to this music and not start moving. Really lightens your mood and sends your mind to a simpler time.
Some would argue a simpler, and better time - strange considering what was going on in Europe and eventually the world. But maybe it was? I listen to this era all of the time, nothing better to dance to, or listen to.
All these bring back my all sweet and unforgettable memories of my middle school days!!!
My Dad played in Chicago all that Jazz Russ Vogt and the Chicagoins and Marie taught dance in the late 30S AND 40S
I love this music and it’s nice to hear other people do to and I just want to say how much skill musicians had back in the 1940s because I’m a sax player myself and they are all hard scores to play no flex or anything but I played atleat 10 of those songs in Germany and it was a experience I’ll never forget swing is a magical thing !!
🎵 ❤️
My father's era but he taught me how to appreciate music, to this day I only like instrumental music from classical to JOHN PHILLIP SOUSA.
Buenos días gallera Dimas té felicita muy buena música exelente desde Coacalco bendiciones y mucho éxito
I have the body of a 22 man and the soul of a 80...no music teases my ears more than 50's songs
The money wasn't there to support big bands. Inflation after the war simply put them out of business. I remember Lester Lanin as being the last of the big bands touring in the early 1950's.
It just fantastic, I’ve learned to love that kid of music from movies and cartoons. I love it
Questa musica fa stare bene
Loving this old style of music. It just makes you feel like sitting in such an old swing bar, the big band standing on the stage and you just can’t stop your feed from wanting to dance
I'm in my senior year of high school now and I just want people to know that this music won't die! Its too incredible to die!
I think this is nostalgia for all of us... memories of our grandparents.
I remember my siblings and I playing my grandparents' 72 Lps on their victrola. Such a carefree memory of a better time.
They would more likely have been 78rpm singles. LPs were mostly 33 1/3 rpm.
Some were 16 rpm.
Listening to Glen Miller in the mood as a child at my grandma's house with the dancing flower was always a core memory, of course the batteries have died but I'm glad I found this song so the memory lives on :)
Omg you are the second person to mention grandma having a dancing flower pot with this song. That's so cute!
Bumping my blue heaven in my jeep in the woods in the mud. Swing is my favorite frequency.
Gracias x pasar estos lindas Bandas como Glenn Miller, BennyGodman hacen revivir mi niñez y que mis padres bailaban muchisimo
From my youth this music was played thought our home radio, and records. Uncles on piano and guitar getting down..amusement park ballrooms Friday and Saturday local 'big' band gigs, dancing till wee hours of the morning. Denver was a stop over for bands heading east and west. Parts of The Glenn Miller story was filmed in Denver. the 30's and 40's the "solid hep times" in the Rockies. I lived it then and yet living it now thanks to gigs like this.
My pop played self taught clarinet like nobody’s business. He would rap on the table and I became a drummer. Love ya Dad.
Music is the joy of my life every day there is no preference if it sounds great I love it forever!
Catch the you tube of the swing girls? Japanese girls playing swing music. Hard to believe this was the music of WWII and they play it and enjoy it as much as we do. My mom and dad lived on the east coast in the late 30's and 40's and this was the standard music in our house for decades. My dad wouldn't let a radio in the house as long as his 78's were still good.
Super -Musik!! Tolle Erinnerungen an meine Jugend
thanks for playing this music in the car dad...i get it now

In short term rehab. Roomie is 98. She had been restless but has settled since I put it on. Grew up listening to this deapite it being before I was born. Lerned to appreciate GOOD music of all eras & genres.
I think that the attraction of big band music is that it is upbeat
I also like the swing jazz playlist from the point of view of dancing swing dance!
I love how iconic some of this music is, I knew the first song in the first five notes
I wish I had a 1940 Ford Coupe & ride around listenin to these guys! (Get me a little Hat) 😂✌️
Listening to some big band while working on my diamond painting and thinking about my dad who just loved big band music. I grew up on this music.
Here I am, hoping Jazz and Big Band makes a massive comeback one day.
I’m in my dreams dancing the night away 😌 ❤❤❤
Grandma Turned 80 not too long ago, her dementia has been accelerating but I believe music can be a way to reverse the effects, I love my Grandma.
Soy de México, me gusta mucho mi música...pero está de las grandes bandas es exquisita para escuchar y bailar. Gracias por compartir. Un fuerte abrazo!!!
