Buried Alive in the Blues
Big Dave
Baby, it don't mean a thing if it ain't got that SWING! Today, I'm looking at the intersection of swing and jazz with other genres. Mix it with country and western? Western swing. Mix it with blues? West coast blues. Everything's better when it swings. Thanks to Django Reinhardt (pictured) for the listening inspiration this week.
Genre
Blues & Folk & Funk & Jazz & Rb & Rock & Soul
