Band breaks at Friday Night of ALHC


This past weekend I covered the band breaks of the Friday evening dance at the American Lindy Hop Championships (the event's first time in Chicago).  Note in particular the song from Leigh Barker & the New Sheiks--somebody asked about it after I played it--it comes on the recommendation of dogpossum. The sets ended up only being a few songs in all, but here they are:

  • Queer Street ['45] - Count Basie - America's #1 Band - 3:05 - 170
  • The Back Room Romp - Duke Ellington - The Duke's Men: The Small Groups, Vol. 1 - 2:49 - 150
  • Oh I'm Evil - Una Mae Carlisle - Una Mae Carlisle: 1938-1941 - 2:25 - 150
  • I'm Coming Virginia - Benny Goodman - The Yale University Archives, Volume 3 - 2:09 - 170
  • Chant Of The Groove - Fats Waller - Fats Waller 1941 - 3:05 - 185
  • Lazy Lazy River - Leigh Barker & The New Sheiks - The Sales Tax - 5:09 - 120
  • All Of Me - Twin Cities Hot Club - Twin Cities Hot Club - 4:10 - 165
  • 'Tain't What You Do - Sy Oliver - Sy Oliver et son orchestre: 1949-1952 - 3:07 - 155
  • Five Foot Two - Gordon Webster - Live In Rochester - 4:04 - 210
  • Shake That Thing - The Smoking Time Jazz Club - Quarter Note Vol. 1 - 4:25 - 125
