SwingDJs

Oh, and not all DJs have too much money, some of us like to spend our student loans on music when we should be putting the money towards things like food.

The Andy Kirk has a lot of vocals and I'm not too big of a fan of the vocals. It seems like with Andy Kirk, you get 1/2 or 2/3rds of the good stuff by just picking up Mary's Idea.. there was a used shop in eugene with like 4 of 'em at once - and I listened through 'em all and didnt find all that mu...

Marcelo was telling me and some others yesterday that at the Binge he was going to sell his cds as he was DJing them. But Julius got to him first and bought everything off of him. But I guess DJing the stuff you wanna sell probably wouldn't work since you think it's crap, that's why you would want t...

Like...oh...my....GAWD, i just like got this like kick ass chick webb cd, and, it's like, totally awesome, like, ya know?

I bring all my cds with me all the time, but I do DJ mainly out of one (now starting a second 48 cd binder) binder because that's where my best music is. My other 2 48 cd binders are alright, but I just don't DJ out of them as much because there is a lot of crap in there, but I bring it anyways. I n...

Jump For Joy - Hot Lips Page 1940 - 1942 Chrono Classic - Andy Kirk The Legendary Big Band Series - Chick Webb Jump for Joy is decent. The Andy Kirk has a lot of vocals and I'm not too big of a fan of the vocals. The Chick Webb was REALLY cheap (4$!!) and it had a few songs I didn't have yet, so I p...

Right...understandable. For me, one thing is that I don't have any of the slow and grindy blues. So that's the best I can do for that reason. It was a bit surprising because I knew that person would know this stuff. If they were to say something like "I want some Gene Harris" then I would ...

-Can you play a blues song? -Sure. *plays black and tan fantasy a few songs later, requestee doesn't dance* *person comes up a couple songs later after it's played* -Are you going to play a blues song? -I did -No you didn't -Yes I did, a couple songs ago, Black and Tan fantasy, slow swing song, can ...

at the bal champs reuben played "Glen Island Special" and it was smokin. now i want it. Yes, that song is one of the few good Glenn Miller songs I am proud to have in my collection. I played it once and someone didn't believe me when I told them it was Glenn Miller. As per the question......

Dancing and DJing is pretty much a job now though for me, I teach, I DJ, I help run the Non-Profit Organization....I do it all on a volunteer basis though, cept I get paid 15$ an hour for teaching. It pretty much is a job for me outside of school, but because I do most of it on a volunteer basis it ...

Word on the grammercy five, freaken AWESOME cd!! I really can't get enough of it, and the sound engineering on it is great, like Rayned said, it sounds a lot more modern then it actually is....sooooo good .

It's a hobby, if it were a business, A) I may not enjoy B) it's pretty damn hard to make a business off of DJing swing music.

I think those 2 DJ's Brenda is talking about did a great job. They played what they like to play. People shouldn't have gone and made the blues room, vintage music is a huge part of Seattle, just as is a lot of other music. It was showcasing part of Seattle and I don't see that anyone should have be...

Hey Harrison - I was searching the Web for Webb (ha ha) to see if there was any answers to your question and I found this nice picture . Thought you would enjoy it. Yeah, I've seen that picture before, it's one of my favs. Thanks everyone, I just know that I have seen sources that weren't right bef...
