The first song is the theme from the Hellzapoppin Whitey's Lindy Hoppers routine (I believe it's just called Hellzapoppin). It's by Slim and Slam. I have a copy on the Complete Columbia Mastertakes, but it may be on other compilations.

Sorry, I can't quite pick the other two.

The third one is Bag's Groove by The Red Holloway Quartet. I can't figure out who the second one is by... it's definitely a version of "I've Found A New Baby"...never heard this one before, though.

The first one contains the music from the famous Whitey's Hellzapoppin dance clip (from around 2m 37s). I think it's over 300bpm. I don't think the music was written or recorded by Slim and Slam though, wasn't it done by a Hollywood studio orchestra? I'm not sure what the much slower music from the first part of clip one is (before 2m 37s). Is this from Hellzapoppin too?

Here's the full clip of Hellzapoppin: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R0BHxhUnokU

Slim and Slam were hired to compose the music for this section (Frankie Manning originally choreographed the routine to Jumpin' at the Woodside) and they and a number of other musicians are featured in the introduction before the dancing starts.

Clearly the music wasn't recorded on set and the routine features more musicians than you see play. Unfortunately I've lost the discography for the set that features this song so I only know those that are featured in the clip.

"I've Found A New Baby" is by Clyde McCoy and His Orchestra.
Jazz will endure as long as people hear it with their feet instead of their brains. --John Philip Sousa
