This time around, we look at the 1990s Lounge (and Swing) Revival. It was a time when performers—new and old—were putting their spin on the classic hi-fi sound. And what they came up with was music that was cool and kookie and at times very strange. We’ll hear from Joey Altruda, Pat Boone, Combustible Edison, and many more.
