Various Artists - The Swingtime Collection:Half Past Jump Time!

Soundies from the '40s and Snader Telescriptions from the early '50s bring us these jumpin', jivin' performances. Along with giants we'll never forget (Duke Ellington, Count Basie, Louis Jordan, Cab Calloway), you'll see unsung heroes of the swing era, some of whom never recorded commercially, and songs not available in any other format by performers both famous and obscure!
