[Answered] Sing You Sinners, Ella Fitzgerald & Her Orchestra
Moderators: Mr Awesomer, JesseMiner, CafeSavoy
I'm pretty sure it's Ella Fitzgerald and Her Famous Orchestra from the CD Live At The Savoy - 1939-40 on the Hep label. The amount of reverb in the room they are performing in makes the track sound a bit newer, but it's got that Swing Era energy that's so hard to recapture. I'm pretty sure they weren't dancing Bal-Swing to this at the Savoy (or maybe they were?) but it works because of the way the band plays it.
