Swingin Sounds
Need some swingin tunes to practise those new swing moves to? No problem!
Good places to buy swing music from include The Warehouse, Real Groovy Records, Borders or Marbecks. They all have a reasonable Jazz/Swing section, so check it out! You can always listen first and then buy on iTunes or at Amazon. Look out for albums by these artists. They all have good swingin sounds.
