small group dancable recordings
i just recently picked up benny goodman small groups 41-44, it had been mentioned in another thread.
previously i had stayed away from small groups, preferring the sound and lack of endless solos in big bands.
please help expedite my search for dancable small group recordings
thanks,
aaron

^^What he said. The Ellington small groups would be my next recommendation. If you have money, get the Mosaic set of Ellington Small Groups
