          Thanks - they're a northern NJ based band. Maybe JennyLP has heard of them??

                I love the song too - thanks for sharing. I guess that you saw that the Swing Girls from Japan did the same song & very well at that

                      Hi Andy, nice thread! LOVE big band! Most women LOVE a guy with a guitar, but for me, it's a guy with a clarinet. ops: Artie Shaw and Benny Goodman...... Thankfully my children LOVE big band as much as I do and have been playing this genre of music for the last five years. The following are a few of our collective favorites: Sing, Sing, Sing - Benny Goodman and His Orchestra, Benny Goodman on Clarinet, Gene Krupa on Drums, Harry James on Trumpet

                      (Film version, check out Gene Krupa on drums...brilliant!) Nightmare - Artie Shaw and His Orchestra, Artie Shaw on the smokin' hot clarinet
                      St. James Infirmary - Artie Shaw and His Orchestra, Vocal by "Hot Lips" Page
                      In the Mood - Glenn Miller and His Orchestra
                      Stompin' at the Savoy - Benny Goodman and His Orchestra
                      Moonlight Serenade - Glenn Miller and His Orchestra
                      A String of Pearls - Glenn Miller and His Orchestra

                      THANK YOU, (((((PAUL)))))!!! WE LOVE YOU!!!

                        Thank you (((Anita))) for you detailed & well thought out response ... I'm speechless. Well not really, I especially love the modern bands that take on the same -- sometimes with a re-interpretation as the following: In The Mood - Ernie Fields Orch.
