"Beat Me Daddy, Eight to the Bar" - i think eight-to-the-bar is short-hand for swing time, like everything is in eighth notes and super-fast for extra-wiggly dance techniques

We talking about the Twin Cities girls? There's a musical about them coming in July to the American History Theatre in St. Paul.

Yes, The Boswell Sisters are better, and Mcguire Sisters too. I like the Mcguire Sister's versions of some of those R&B songs better than Moonglows or Spaniels.

The Andrews Sisters 0\/\/n. I found a great, yet flawed, compilation for $3 USD down in Mexico.
