SWING - The Beat That Shook The World
In 1929, the roaring twenties crashed in the Great Depression. A flamboyant world of excess gave way to a decade of austerity and rumblings of war. The crisis bred a new culture of escapism as deco dance halls became popular havens for big band exuberance and the euphoria of Swing. A riveting story channeled by New York's Metronome magazine music critic, George T Simon as he voices the rivalries and personalities of Swing.
