Wow! Accidentally came upon this last night, it’s pretty good stuff. Hard to ignore good music no matter what your taste buds fancy. Plenty more of it on YouTube. A genre in itself …wartime radio music.

Reminds me of the Squirrel Nut Zippers and that swing revival of the '90s. Which is arguably still around in some sense.

Nice CC. Loved their voices. Guy playing sax looked like an actor who couldn't quite get it right (overacting). Doesn't always have to be garage band or computer generated. I think of Close Encounters of the Third Kind movie and how music was deemed some kind of universal language and a way to communicate, even with ET's...lol
