| I apologize, my The Cats & The Fiddle disc wouldn't play, so I was unable to play the original versions of 'One Is Never Too Old To Swing' and 'Killing Jive' (both songs were recorded for the Bluebird label, in 1940 and 1939 respectively). I promise I will play them....one day. Perhaps a swing/black vocal group episode.
The next song is an original composition by the Crazy Rhythm Daddies.....Hey, I had to fit a boogie in somewhere! |

| If anyone has the Crazy Rhythm Daddies 2007 release "How 'Bout It" I'd be very interested in either buying it or trading some records for it. If not please keep an eye out for it for me & let me know. |
