When I'm in the mood for music, the playlist that I reach for most often is my Vintage Lifestyle playlist. These are the songs that, to me, most strongly evoke another era and take me back in time. The tracks tend to be a little scratchy, kind of heavy on the vocals, and are frequently slower than the tempos I like to dance to. But then, most tempos are slower that the ones I like to dance to.
This week I'm going to share a few of my favorite tunes with you - I hope you enjoy them!
"Blue Skies", performed by Tommy Dorsey and His Orchestra, with Frank Sinatra on vocals
Frank is great and all, but my favorite part is the band singing behind him. It's just enough Novelty. And the horns swing HARD after the vocal chorus, even though it's fairly slow. I'm gonna listen to it again. :)
Great song!! This is my favorite tempo - I can really get groovy.
