Hey there,

"Sing Sing Sing" is one of the coolest swing songs, and I hear it a lot on TV shows, like on tonights simpsons episode, when Mr Burns dances with Marge's Mother!!

I dont know the original author of the work, but I have a version by "Benny Goodman" and his orchestra. And I believe that the "Big Bad Voodoo Daddy" band played it as well

Also the late great Buddy Rich and Max Roach did a drum duet incorporating the main theme of Sing Sing Sing, and I think they called it "Swing Swing Swing"! Someone correct me if I'm wrong


Cheers,
WOj
