With this post I’m gonna start a series to introduce my favourite Swing songs to you.
To feature a Song of the Week is actually not my invention, there was at least one blog with a similar column, but unfortunately after a short while they stopped posting. I like the idea and since I’m DJ’ing quite a lot, you might be interested!
I would like to start this column with one of my alltime favourites. This is a great song either for a Lindy Hop or for a Balboa crowd. I especially like the break after about 2:50 where you think a new song is going to start before you realise it’s still the same one.
Title: All The Cats Join In (06-12-44)
Artist: Benny Goodman & Orchestra
Recorded: 12.06.1944
Album: Complete Jazz Series 1942-1944
Tempo: 180 bpm

How do you like the song? Your comment is very welcome!
Every Monday, I post a new “Song of the Week“. You can find the songs also on my Spotify playlist.
