America has exported many products to the world, and one of our finest gifts is music. We may think of rock and roll or rhythm and blues, but one of the earliest and most popular musical exports is jazz and swing. This week we'll hear classics from Django Reinhardt, Count Basie, Duke Ellington, Dan Hicks and his Hot Licks, Russ Barenberg, and next week we'll continue with Part 2. “It Don't Mean a Thing” … this week on The Sing Out Radio Magazine. Pete Seeger / “If I Had A Hammer”(excerpt) / Songs of Hope and Struggle / Smithsonian FolkwaysDjango Reinhardt & Stephane Grappelli / “Minor Swing” / Djangologie Vol.6 / EMI PatheJoshua Rifkin / “Elite Syncopations” / Scott Joplin Piano Rags / NonesuchBenny Goodman / “Air Mail Special” / Best of the Big Bands / ColumbiaCount Basie / “One O'clock Jump” / This is Jazz 11 / ColumbiaDuke Ellington & Ella Fitzgerald / “It Don't Mean a Thing (If It Ain't Got That Swing)” / At the Cote D' Azur / VerveLambert, Hendricks & Ross / “Twisted” / The Hottest New Group in Jazz / ColumbiaDan Hicks & his Hot Licks / “Canned Music” / Original Recordings / EpicBill Knopf / “Take the “A” Train” / Pacific Swing / First InversionDjango Reinhardt & Stephane Grappelli / “Swinging with Django” / Djangologie Vol.6 / EMI PatheAllen Tousaint / “Rocks in My Bed” / American Tunes / NonesuchGuy Van Duser & Billy Novick / “Exactly Like You” / Exactly Like Us / RounderRuss Barenberg / “Halloween Rehearsal” / Halloween Rehearsal / RounderThe Phil Salazar Band / “Swing to Bop” / The Phil Salazar Band / Flying FishMerle Travis / “Walkin' the Strings” / The Merle Travis Guitar / RavenPete Seeger / “If I Had A Hammer”(excerpt) / Songs of Hope and Struggle / Smithsonian Folkways
