hello folks,
so, I'm a bit of a pre-60s nerd. I collect records and play them on either my wind up gramophone or old record changer thing, I've not found anyone else into this stuff and would like to, or at least a girl who can stand it :p or a friend who can talk about it!
I especially like 20s jazz/foxtrot/charleston type music, swing, big bands and early rock and roll, early elvis and the likes.
What about you?

I always wanted to learn swing dancing propperly. Had a go at it and probably failed rather horribly.

that's some crazy jive, man
I actually have the 78 rpm disc of coon sanders doing that someware, they were one of the best bands on early radio apparently. My university floor mates didn't seem to think they were much good though.
