I've recently fallen hopelessly in love with swing/jazz music, and I'm compiling a starter pack of songs that I think every starter swing fan should know. Some are oldies, some are remixes, but all of them are awesome. :D
My question is this. Do any of you want early access to it? It should be completed by the end of the week, so if you'd like, I'll send you the link (most likely on 4shared, as that's my preferred site of choice for .zip file sharing).

Caravan Palace was actually what got me into this new kick. :D

Does this include Ska as well? or even Glen Miller type stuff?
I can help with that if you like.

I'd like a listen to, but I'd just like to clarify what era of jazz we're talking about.

As a trombone player who's played a lot of jazz, you MUST know In the Mood, Take the A Train, Sing Sing Sing and Birdland (Maynard Ferguson version).

Squirrel But Zippers are one of my favorite bands. Check out the song "Ghost of Stephen Foster" or anything from their album "Hot!". Hell listen to the whole thing front to back lol.
