louis jordan is an unsung hero of american music. I love all his stuff. I would put him in the swing bucket. He really is one of the fathers or rock and roll. If you like that stuff check out Jay McShanns band from KC. Charlie Parker is like 18yrs old on some of these recordings and its amazing to hear him play.

but.... (just so Dad F doesnt think I just pick on him)Cab and Jordan are not part of the 1990s swing revivial..........they were the originals
