  • Program
The Age of Swing continued full on through the mid-1940s, in spite of World War II and and several musicians union boycots, before falling out of favor and commercial viability as the decade wound down. Still tons of great songs and instrumentals, and Chuck and company cover their favorites, including “I’ll Never Smile Again”, “Flying Home”, “Take The 'A' Train”, “It Had To Be You”, “PEnnsylvania 6-5000”, “I'll Be Seeing You” among many others.
