Big Band Bash

Jimmy Dorsey 1939 - 1940 A Birthday Salute


Listen Later

This past week we observed a leap day, February 29th. Born on February 29, 1904 was Jimmy Dorsey. To observe his birthday and pay tribute, I went through my cds and came across two that were recorded in the years of 1939 and 1940. There are some nice recordings in this set. I wanted to do something different rather than play all his hits which I have done on other programs. So we will learn about the career of the late Jimmy Dorsey and listen to music that he recorded in 1939 and 1940. Please visit this podcast at http://bigbandbashfm.blogspot.com
