Benny Goodman
If you can find it, the Ken Burns Jazz collection does a superb Benny Goodman compilation - and if you have any doubts about it, skip forward to Benny Rides Again or Sing, Sing, Sing.

Oh, and green, reasonably, and I'd hope not.

I'll see my dad.
He still has some original Benny Goodman EPs. I'll need to buy a turntable though.

I can also recommend - for something more modern - The Puppini Sisters
Crap pop songs turned into swing numbers do make for light entertainment and a good chuckle.

Yes
Their version of Heart of Glass is quite amusing!

Have you heard their version of Crazy in Love?
Knocks spots off the original.

Edit: Actually, the best one is their version of Wuthering Heights as posted here. The song is amusing enough, but even funnier is the flurry of comments from irate Kate Bush fans who seem to have no sense of humour!

A pal of mine engineered a session for them.
His verdict: 'wouldn't'.
