I saw this show in San Francisco in 1981 and it was great!!!!!! Same band as the record! In a little club called the Old Waldorf. Great music great vib🥁

Who knows what made Joe Jackson decide that what the world needed was an album of jump swing music. But he was right...12 cuts that want to make you take your honey, grab a big hat and cut a rug. It predates the swing revival of the 1990s but man it was perfect. Perfect in 1981 and perfect now.

Joe Jackson plays swing music. He covers songs by Cab Calloway, Louis Jordan, Louis Armstrong and cats like that and he does it surprisingly well!
