Volume 221: Every Twist You Take

Listen Later

This is going to be an extra fun episode. Many of the tunes have melodies you already know. Some tunes were created for this album.

The trumpet player leading the band was part of some great music history in the form of some famous big bands, including some history he claimed on his own.

So get ready to hear the last living member of the original Glenn Miller Orchestra in Volume 221: Every Twist You Take.
