The Roots of Tuxedo Junction
The swingandbeyond blog retells that story of Tuxedo Junction from the up-tempo theme song of the “20th Century Gabriel” Erskine Hawkins to the huge hit by Glenn Miller of the same tune by taking it more at a ballad tempo. Interesting how Miller took this classic in a slower tempo as he did with Duke Ellington’s A Train.
