Six Bands on a Hot Tin Roof

Accompaniment: Bob Blank Orchestra & Chorus - In the 20th Century, the year 1998 to be exact, a new swing sound came to our music. Derived in part from the Big Bands of the Forties, and tempered by the music of such jump bands as Louis Prima and Louis Jordan, besides adopting the dress code of the hip-cats of an earlier era (Cab Calloway for instance) these bands played some great music in a more modern, flexible and fun-drenched style. We've taken the most famous songs of these groups, and put them all on an MMO CD for your pleasure and participation.
