They've been around forever, but I only recently discovered the New Pornographers. Here are two songs from their album, Electric Version:

You can’t go wrong with just about anything from the WW II big band era;
Glen Miller, Benny Goodman, a particular favorite of mine-Artie Shaw.

I know right?? I gave a listen to all of them and they're all pretty good!! I've been downloading tracks to my mp3 to test out while driving and working out.

There's some good stuff on here. I like Clapton - missed it all the first tme round, no I'm not that old, and I find I'm going backwards at the minute.
