Tautochronous Hot Links


Moonlight Shuffle, Les Elgart & His Orchestra (1959)
After successful runs with several big bands of the 1940s, Les Elgart and his brother Larry formed their own orchestra with a distinctive brass-heavy sound. Their most recognizable recording, Bandstand Boogie, became the theme song to Dick Clark’s American Bandstand television show.

    1. My dad had a lot of jazz albums including Les Elgart, and that song was one of my favorites as a kid. Now I hear it and think of busty strippers with tassels. I’m surprised I hadn’t posted it here before. It was the opening theme song for a weekly podcast a group of us “aired” over ten years ago.
