Scott I maybe incorrect, but Corabar Entertainments told me that was illegal to display music tracks, or I may of got it mixed up. :embarasse
You have a great list of music there, I may have to download some off I- Tunes :)

[Corabar Entertainment]

It isn't illegal to just to copy the names - it is illegal to copy the MUSIC :omg:

I knew there was something more to it than that. Thanks Corabar :teeth:

try here (http://www.raucousrecords.com/shop/default.asp?subCat=A&cat=CDs+%2D+SWING) for some contempory swing (most swing is 40s / 50s style)

DJ ags--if you read your list I think you will find some very dubious numbers in there--

King of the Road ( Country/ Pop )
Downtown--(60s Pop)
These boots are made for walkin ( 60s pop)

Im not saying these arent good MOR tracks---BUT

Dont play those at a function which wants swing or rat pack--youll get lynched! or even worse---laughed at! :teeth:

That was just the tracklist for the Mastermix Grandmaster Swing CD, and is not necessarily the "Swing" music that we use at a function (if indeed we play any Swing) as we have our own music sets for all genres and eras that we play from!

I thought i'd post up the tracklist as the links have been disabled :)
