SwingDJs

I probably have an advantage over many teachers in that once students sign up for my university social dance class, they don't really have a choice whether they want to stay, and I have them for 3 months. At least half of those three months is focused on swing dancing. This quarter, I tried somethin...

I have a version by Harry James with a false ending that's pretty sweet.

I love the Mills Brothers' version featuring Louis Armstrong.

I picked up a great CD that I spin from a lot, Sammy Price featuring Emmett Berry in the Americans Swinging in Paris series.

I love to listen to Basie piano solos and intros over and over.

I have a CD called "Stompin' at the Savoy", featuring live broadcasts from the Savoy in 1940 of Erksine and Coleman Hawkins.

I actually picked this up last night. It's not too bad, although there's really only one spinable song for a swing dance. If you ever DJ for blues dances/dancers, there's a lot of stuff on it. Of course, that's assuming you're okay with the idea behind it. Some people might be against that.
