    Summary:

    Whether you remember the big band era yourself or simply appreciate the timeless music of the war years and beyond, you'll find many treasures in this third collection from Radio Archives, featuring eighteen of the top bands and musical groups of the era in twenty half-hour live remote broadcasts dating from 1944 to 1958. In addition to performances by orchestras that are still well remembered today, the set also features broadcasts by several lesser-known but equally talented ensembles, all performing live and in-person from some of the top ballrooms and night spots of the era.
