Hey there People of Swing! I'm going to be taking a small break during the holidays but I DID NOT want to leave you empty handed. So I've put together a collection of songs from past episodes that I really enjoyed cleaning up and playing just for you.  Peggy Lee, Harry James and The Andrews sisters are just a few of the artists you'll hear in this episode.  Enjoy the music and see you soon!
