Re: mosaic sets

....and Lester Young is shipping to "2 - 3 weeks"

To say I'm looking forward to this one is probably the understatement of the year.

Louis Armstrong Quote

I'm trying to track down a soundbyte of Louis Armstrong's wonderful "definition" of swing: Ah, swing, well, we used to call it syncopation — then they called it ragtime, then blues — then jazz. Now, it's swing. Ha! Ha! White folks, yo'all sho is a mess. It's attributed to one of his guest ...

Re: Nick & Kate Shim Shammy Routine Song

It's Back Bay Shuffle. Ella Fitzgerald and her Famous Orchestra (you can hear her voice calling out a lot through the track)

I think it's from Live At The Savoy 1939-40 (again)

Re: Lindy Focus - Bal Comp

I *think* it's Raggin' the Scale - Ella FitzGerald and her Famous Orchestra - Live at the Savoy.

If you don't have that album, get it - it's a must-have.
