So you've heard about the swing craze taking the nation by storm and want to know more? Get the flicks Swing Kids and Swingers, buy up all the Duke Ellington, Cab Calloway, and Big Bad Voodoo Daddy you can find, and settle in with Swing Craze for some instruction before hitting the clubs. Vintage clips of hep cats from the 1930s--unfortunately interspersed between less thrilling commentary--will leave you breathless, and the clear, easy-to-follow demonstrations will have you rock-stepping in no time. The production values aren't as glossy as on a big-studio release, but, with material aimed at new zoot suiters rather than folks looking for fancy air moves, this is a solid introduction to the dance, the lingo, the culture, and the history of swing.
