I have that album as well. The Hucklebuck isn't one of the songs on there I dig, but there are a few songs I like on it. This thread sucks... It's like I should feel guilty for liking the occasional song/album/artist that is mentioned here. Ya should, ya bastard! :lol: This is about swing music not...

Sure, of course. It's possible to fry your laptop plugging in to a lot of things. I saw one go up in smoke when plugged into a video projector. It all depends what's going down those wires.

Like, so in the moment that even trainwrecking was being a golden god. (Also, Eddie Reed was playin...

Likewise, today, some of the very best Lindy Hop bands I've seen live so far have not even made it onto CD. (e.g., the Southwest Texas Big Band at last year's Austin Exchange.)
