He really likes Green Hill Zone. He even added a cover of it on his new album.

I really liked Michael Gamble & The Rhythm Serenaders

Why bother with Tony Bennett when the real Vic Fontaine has is own complete album that you could probably license for cheaper?

I'm enjoying Ella Fitzgerald's gorgeous vocals on the 2017 released: (The Complete Decca Singles Vol. 1: 1935-1939) [https://www.amazon.com/Complete-Decca-Singles-Vol-1935-1939/dp/B06Y4J5MVP/ref=sr_1_1?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1492697384&sr=8-1&keywords=Ella+Fitzgerald%3A+The+Complete+Decca+and+Verve+Albums]

Love the Darktown Strutters on here. And the song it's Foxy, but the rhythm section vanishes under her vocals. I like it, but I'd hesitate to dj it. Does anyone know of a version of It's Foxy where the rhythm section, you know, "stays put?"

The album for the lazy

Wow! I had no idea that he released an album. Definitely looking into buying it now.

There's a scammer selling MP3s on Amazon with the album title Swan Lake in the Winter with various credited artists:

• Fletcher Henderson
  
• Les McCann
  
• Lee Konitz
  
• Abbey Lincoln
  
  There are hundreds more. Here's Herbie Hancock's.
  
  I think Google just got duped by this scammer.

Personally, I think Anthony Braxton is a pretty good idea - if you were to cut-and-paste sections from different pieces. Lots of Braxton's solo sections are 'language' studies: extended exercises exploring a specific technique or type of phrase. These will be controlled and methodical. But then there are others that are about explosive elements - screaming multiphonics, blasts, etc. You could fine-tune a sequence to fit the dramatic needs.

Doing some quick research, I think a couple likely candidates would be Solo Willisau - Bandcamp and Spotify - or For Alto - Amazon - Spotify.

Because he's Vic Fontaine. Duh.

Nah but I just really like Vic. We listened to his CD in the limo on the way to prom. Our driver thought it was cool.

Don Telling's Island Mysteries

I have a Tidal HiFi subscription, and I still download music and rip CD's to FLAC.

Why download and rip CD's:

1. Occasional problems with Internet service. Just enough to be a problem.
   
2. Control of Library. If history of the last 20 years has taught us anything, is that things change and you must take control of your own files. This is a main driver of the vinyl resurgence, supposedly.
   
3. Lack of Control. Tidal (or any other service) may increase restrictions or increase prices to the point where the cost isn't worth it.
   
4. High quality FLAC files. For instance, I downloaded Bernstein's nine Beethoven symphonies from HDTracks recently. I don't want to be without my own copy of this as my reference Nine. Only $15 more than a CD set, 192kHz / 24 bit.
   
5. CD's are still amazingly cheap in thrift stores. Usually $1 to $2 each. In conjunction with point 2 (control), this is an easy way to build a library.
   
6. Availability. Some versions and masters have been removed from streaming services. They normally only have one available.
   
   Why Stream on Tidal (or anywhere else):
   
   
7. Price. With Military discount, Tidal HiFi is $12 per month.
   
8. Access to (almost) unlimited library.
   
9. Experimentation. I can listen to things I never would if I had to pay for every CD or song. If I like it, I might buy it for the library. Bloom is an example.
   
10. Convenience, but given my use of JRiver and Kodi as media servers, not as much as you might imagine.
    
    ​
    
    Other people might include portability as an advantage of streaming, but I have hearing aids, so I do all my serious listening at home with my speakers and amps that I can control. Headphones are OK for me at best, and have to be over the ear types. Not conducive for being out in the world. Earbuds are out of the question, for obvious reasons.

That's a tough call. Give us examples of non-Christmas music you like.

Offhand, I'd say you're pigeonholed into listening to crooners and some types of orchestral music. If you like crooners, give Only You a listen, performed by an amateur Aussie tapped for a viral Paralympics ad a few years ago who is now testing the waters to make a living singing.

Maybe George Winston's Winter into Spring album, piano music.

Songs like Nick Drake's Pink Moon and Elliot Smith's Angeles make me think of Christmas.

Holiday is a peppy song by Vampire Weekend. It's about a summer vacation, but has the word 'holiday' packed in the refrain, and, umm, Christmas is in the summer in the southern hemisphere.

It isn't recorded in low quality similar to actual 40's songs, but Seth Macfarlane's album is all 40's-50's music, and he's actually a great singer.

Digital album is reasonably priced

There's an album with most of them: http://www.amazon.com/Always-Sunny-Philadelphia-Original-Series/dp/B004198XC8

I love the "On Your Bike" one too.

> When you have so many young people swing dancing, why not throw in some younger music every now and then?

You're right! Let's!

Here's some standard music played by modern bands with great sound quality:

• Michael Gamble & The Rhythm Gamblers: https://www.amazon.com/Michael-Gamble-Rhythm-Serenaders/dp/B01GQZD5SG
  
  
• Jonathan Stout & His Campus Five: https://www.amazon.com/Rhythm-Jonathan-Campus-featuring-Alexander/dp/B0006A4KNM/ref=ntt_mus_dp_dpt_1
  
  
• Gordon Webster: https://www.cdbaby.com/cd/gordonwebster22
  
  
• The Rhythm Gamblers: https://therhythmgamblers.bandcamp.com/album/the-rhythm-gamblers
  
  You might say: Those are modern bands, but they're still playing all the songs I knew! What I really want is new songs altogether. Okay!
  
  
• Glenn Crytzer's Savoy Seven: http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/glenncrytzerssavoyseven3
  
  
• Jonathan Doyle Quintet: https://jonathandoyle.bandcamp.com/album/the-fed-hop
  
  
• Joe Smith & The Spicy Pickles: https://joesmithandthespicypickles.bandcamp.com/album/high-fidelity
  
  
• Jeremy Mohney: https://jeremymohneymusic.bandcamp.com/album/smile-a-while
  
  No you still don't understand /u/AFistfulOfAww, what I really really want to do is dance to music that doesn't swing, but with the same-ish shapes that I learned in Lindy Hop classes!
  
  
• You'll fit right in at /r/westcoastswing! The dance shares our origin, and it is danced to all kinds of different music. Last I heard they even have some Zouk influence these days!

My big issue is that they're selling the soundtrack.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004198XC8?ie=UTF8&*Version*=1&*entries*=0

If they're selling this music, wouldn't that mean that they've got rights to it?
