Swingouts Intresseklubb #4

När studion fylls av livs levande proffsmusiker går vi lös på både inredning och lyssnarfrågor. Med änglars tålamod svarar de pedagogiskt på alla våra frågor om jazz: Hur föds svänget? Var är bryggan? Vem gillar bebop? Är a-delen den bästa delen? Behövs takt? Och tolvorna? Ja, de ja!

Frågetecken rätas ut, det fantastiska bandet spelar (LIVE!) och ståpälsen är ett faktum. Som en smäck!

These incredible pictures of Teddy Boys give us a glimpse into what life was like as a young adult in London in the 1950s - long before mods, rockers, new romantics and disco queens appeared on the scene. The images feature all manner of raucous scenes from across the capital, from the Wembley Rock and Roll festival to the famous Adam & Eve pub on Homerton High Street,  The slick subculture emerged in the 1950s as Britain was was coming to the end of post-war austerity and represented the first face of British youth culture.
