Are you limiting it to music of the 20's only in 2/4 or just any music thats sounds Charlestony form the 20's and early 30's? No songs are coming to the top of my head, but I would start looking at charts form artists like: Fletcher Hendersion, Fess Williams Leon Abbey Claude Hopkins Luis Russell Mc...

In reality when we thing of Cab Calloway songs most of them are recorded in the early 40's or abouts. I've come got a few very early Cab Calloway recordings (1931) and there are so, so. Is there any of his early recordings that you really like? I sure there is great stuff out there, just I don't hav...

I've only got it on Casette, and I'm trying to transfer it to CD not. Semi working. Some great songs on it.
I really like 1 O'Clock jump.
I'm hoping to put on a Webb V's Basie nigth some time soon. Should be fun. Only use per 1940 Basie recordings. Try to recreate the battle of all battles.

Bob

well I've got all of those. You'll need to add Count Basie & has orchestra 1937, Chick webb & his Orchestra 1936 . The recordings on this album are very different than Chick Webbs standards. There are some very cool songs on this one. There are some other recordings I also have of Chick Webb...

Has anyone come across a full listings of Chick Webb recordings?
I think I have a lot of them, but I keep coming accross new ones every so often.

Bob

There non of his shuff "I have" that I really like. So I suppose I need to put him on the end of my wish list. Should get to it around June 2007.

Bob

I got a Chick Webb Cd the other day too, but mine is better than yours.

No I'm not a little girl. Where did you ever get that idea.

Bob

Have a look at www.amazon.de (yes the German one)
It has some of them. Not much info though. I'm sure there are more european CD selling websites.

To much of a good think is never good. If you over play the best charts, people get fed up of them. I think it is quite a good song. Haven't DJed it to often, as it is still being played a lot down here. But thats ture of most stuff I DJ. If I hear other DJ's playing a song to often, I will try to D...

I'm not a fan of excluding any artists. Most of them, even Glen Miller IMHO have recorded one or two Charts that I believe are good to Ok. I have found my taste to develop sometimes as well, so an artist I did not like when I first heard them, now I may like. I generally don't believe in closing doo...

Question on transferring from one media to CD. If the original is in Mono, are you better off making the recording in Stereo or Mono? Second, what it the best input volume level into you computer, in order to get the best quality recording? If recording an old LoFi, what bit level and file size leve...

I was DJing a small event last Week. And it seemed to be going very well. I was playing some new stuff, and from what I could see the dancers were looking happy. The dance floor had its usual number of people on it. However I discovered later on that some people found some of the stuff I DJed not ve...
