 Here's
the cut we sent in as our submission for the 2010 Prairie Home Companion
Battle of the Bands:
| Hey
Pachuco! - Hot up-tempo swing, some nasty
trumpet, and drums drums drums. Hey!!! |
The town of Woodburn has been great to us over the last few years!
Here are a few cuts recorded live in 2008 at the Who's on Third?
and Music in the Park series.
| Jumpin'
Jack - A favorite opener for SWJE, this one cooks! |
Moten
Swing - Laid-back and bluesy, just like Benny Moten wrote
it! |
| Do
Nothin' Till You Hear From Me
- Did she do him wrong? "Nope, just misunderstood"
sings Cynthia Plank. |
Tuxedo
Junction - Paula Bender-Baird takes us down South to that
little town where they dance the night away. |
| Sugar
Blues - So down and dirty we're almost afraid to play it
for family audiences <grin>! Ron Phillips does the honors.
|
Sing
Sing Sing - A perennial favorite, with Alex Wade on skins. |
