Are you ready to Swing? AVID Entertainment’s latest Essential Collection release crosses the pond to bring you Classic Swing USA.
An American phenomenon, the Swing Band era was at it’s peak from the mid 1930’s to the mid 1940’s and was generally thought to have been started when Benny Goodman let loose and hit a groove at the Palomar Ballroom in 1935!
Our well filled double CD features alongside Goodman, such greats as Chick Webb, Artie Shaw, Gene Krupa, The Dorsey Brothers and many many more Swing legends.
