    Ouch!

    Vitanola & Lizzie, sorry to hear those stories... I've always been frustrated by RCA/BMG/Sony/Woever-the-heck-owns-them-now refusal to ever issue a "complete Tommy Dorsey on RCA Victor" set of reissues. They started in the 1970s with 2-LP sets which I think went to the early 80s before they...

    I've just ordered a course on beginning learning German, and am interested in learning more about the vintage scene there after learning the language. What's the forum?

    QUESTION: Popularity in FRANCE of 1930s-1940s vintage styles

    Unfortunately, I've since read that many of that artistic output, including fashion shows and seemingly-appealing photos of well-dressed Parisians walking about the streets during WWII, were actually part of the a propaganda machine to make it APPEAR that "everything was OK" and it was...

    QUESTION: Popularity in FRANCE of 1930s-1940s vintage styles

    Thanks, Flat Foot Floey; that led me to some fascinating (if morosely depressing) books on WWII-era France, and interaction with American swing & jazz culture-- More to add to the ever-growing Amazon wish list...

    Ray Winder Field (1932) Gone by Friday

    Yes, condolances, Dixie, on Ray Winder Field. Just SAD. My first job was at the concession stand at the old Durham Bulls (North Carolina) baseball park, LOVED it -- free games, good folks, free lemonade- or peach-slushies (my job at the stand), what more could a kid want, I couldn't believe...

    QUESTION: Popularity in FRANCE of 1930s-1940s vintage styles

    Can anyone comment on the current [or "recent"] popularity in FRANCE of 1930s-1940s vintage styles? (i.e. the popularity of Movies, Music, & Clothes from those decades) Does anyone know of any French-speaking equivalent of the Fedora Lounge? (tried googling "France 1930s[1940s] forum", no...

    What are you listening to?

    Great selection John, I've enjoyed every Waits song I can recall hearing; really need to go ahead and get a compilation rather than just buying individual MP3s... Too much fun, V.C.- reminds me of a British version of some of those Stan Freberg records... WISH I had more time to hang out...

    What are you listening to?

    ....and I, for one, am perfectly O.K. with that... Cool selection BTW, had previously only heard the Lunceford version... Suits Lover, you're right on target for some of the best of swing-era popular music there. I had been a hardcore 20s-50s record collector for a while, then quit for a...

    What are you listening to?

    In-deed - Good Taste ;) . I'm a big fan of Hawk's, especially how he was a downright Decent Guy, and the first one to give another favorite musician of mine, Thelonious Monk, his first break into making records as a sideman/guest pianist on several sides with Hawk's band in the '40s. If you...
