In the meantime, here’s some more details about the show:
Welcome to a long awaited edition of an almost forgotten show called Swing! Some of you may not even know that we have a show called Swing! on SoulandJazz.com, because I haven’t actually done one in the past 17 months. However, it is spring, and spring is the time to swing - so swing we shall!
To that end I have assembled two hours of classic swing ranging from 1939 to 2014 featuring Catherine Russell, Henry "Red" Allen, Gene Ammons, Louis Armstrong, Ernestine Anderson, Ella Fitzgerald, Patti Austin, Rachael MacFarlane, George Benson, Andrea Balducci, Bria Skonberg, Toshiko Akiyoshi, Bob Lark & His Alumni Band, Duke Ellington Legacy, Tony LaVorgna, Bernt Rosengren Big Band, Rob Parton Big Band, Black QP'67, Joe Clark Big Band, Michael Treni Big Band, Clayton-Hamilton Jazz Orchestra & Arturo Sandoval.
So, put on your dancing shoes and let's swing y'all!
Agape ya'll & keep swinging'!
