Nothing evokes the glamour, spirit and atmosphere of the 1920s and 30s like a dance band in full swing. Gathered here are the bands who bossed the BBC airwaves - Jack Hylton, Ambrose, Henry Hall, Geraldo, Carroll Gibbons, Jack Payne and more – while signature tunes such as Roy Fox’s Whispering and Jack Payne’s Say It With Music showcase the flair and musicianship of these superstars of the West End ballrooms.  Not forgetting the unique styles of such legendary vocalists as Al Bowlly, Sam Browne and Vera Lynn. Could there be any better way to recall the magic of the dance band days? Roll up the carpet and dance to these outstanding vintage recordings.
