We're all about Big Band Hi-Fi this time on the show! We put the spotlight on Big Band artists and what they did during the hi-fi era. On top of that, we have classic Big Band tunes played by later Atomic Age artists. We have music from Anita O’Day, Jimmy Dorsey, Duke Ellington, Count Basie, and more!
