Did someone mention L. Prima?
With Gene Krupa on the drums?
With Harry James on his horn?
Oh yeah, some guy named Goodman on a clarinet.

It can make the dead get up.

That particular link was the Goodman band in 1937, doing Sing Sing Sing. It was Prima's ink.

As you like this kind of music, each Sunday, you can listen online here:

A friend of mine (retired Coastie dit-dit-dah-dah) does a Big Band radio show 1400-1800. It is a good show, and the stream is good quality. Luckily, I can pick it up off the air in the garage. For his patriotic shows, he always ends it with one of my favorite vocal pieces.
