Music from past times.
Bobby Darin with a witty live version of ‘Mack the Knife’, ‘master of swing’ Oscar Peterson, the Joe Moony Quartet (‘the best thing since Ellington’) and Ellington himself (‘Doin’ the voom form’).
Furthermore: Ella Fitzgerald on her ‘Rodgers and Hart Songbook’, bass player Red Norvo (‘Rainy Night’), a singing escapade of Spock from ‘Star Trek’, the Eindhoven-based Nelly Wijsbek, music from ‘Turks Fruit’.
From the American countryside: Smokey McGinness and Bob Black with ‘Turkey in the Straw’, Wim Sonneveld with two different housekeepers, but both called Dora, jazz ensemble Les Double Six with ‘French rat race’, harmonica virtuoso Larry Adler with ‘Bolero’, Anita O’Day, Fellini music by Nino Rota.
