“A Big Band Fourth of July”


Recommended Posts

A new Night Lights show celebrates the legacy of swing for America’s Independence Day. A World War I era recording from James Reese Europe’s Hellfighters, a live performance of the short-lived Duke Ellington band theme that preceded “Take The A Train,” Woody Herman’s rendition of a Frank Zappa tune, and music from the International Sweethearts of Rhythm, Machito, Count Basie and others all contribute to this patriotic panorama for the holiday.
