Artie Shaw - Begin the Beguine CD (1987)

Step back to the golden age of the big bands with Artie Shaw — one of the finest clarinettists in jazz history and a bandleader who could make a dancefloor move like nobody else.

This 23-track compilation centres on Begin the Beguine, Shaw's signature recording and one of the best-selling singles of the swing era, alongside a well-chosen selection of his finest sides. Effortlessly cool, impeccably played, and as fresh-sounding today as it was in the late 1930s.
