Lots of great stuff here posted by BESO band singer John O'Campo.

There's a live ShimSham that looks like it is from 1998.

fwiw - BESO was all over LA back in the late 90s. LA's premier swing band some would say. If you missed the band on Wednesday, you could catch him on Saturday or Sunday. He was in ballrooms, clubs, dance camps, summer in the park gigs, just about any place you could imagine with 1st class players and charts and hundreds of dancers showing up.

Good times!
Will big bands ever come back?
