keeping the music of the past ALIVE!...from the Golden Eras of the 1920's, 1930's, 1940's, 1950's and 1960's including Big Band, Dance Orchestras, Swing, Crooners, Nostalgic, Popular Artists and Harmony Groups plus Contemporary, Retro and Revival artists
Powerful, high-fidelity and FUN! Cool music from the Mad Men era. A collection of lounge music by various artists with performers such as Gloria Wood whose "Hey Bellboy" is a hoot and Cy Coleman whose music is so sensual(his "Pussycat" will make the hair stand up on the back of your neck with some of its unexpected chords!). Many of the selections that appear here are not available elsewhere, either because the original album on which the song appeared is out of print, or because the song was issued as a single and never collected in an album.
The Gunboat Diplomats are an independent song shop in Jacksonville Beach, Florida that records original music with a vintage vibe in a variety of genres. They have just completed the first two songs for their new record called “Manifest Destiny.” They are available for free streaming and downloading at Bandcamp (https://gunboatdiplomats.bandcamp.com/album/manifest-destiny) and on their web site (http://www.gunboatdiplomats.com). One is old school Bakersfield country and the other is folk. The Gunboat Diplomats are the best-kept secret on the indie scene, and will be for the foreseeable future. Their melodic music, which is rich in harmonies with a distinctive vintage vibe, has been described as “music that is rich in harmonies with a distinctive vintage vibe.” When they are not writing and recording in Zoe Tribe Studios, they enjoy sending unsolicited promotional emails to unsuspecting recipients.
