Check out this Japanese all girl swing jazz band. Incredible. The Japanese audience who are normaly pretty conservative let lose and really get into it also. The bass player is kind cute too. http://www.youtube.com/watch_popup?v...rQeY&vq=medium

Everyone would do themselves a favor be becoming more familiar with big band music. Ya GOTTA tap your foot to that one - outstanding musicianship, great solos, just a top-notch performance all around.

Still, some decent lines...

." | I looked them up and they actually played the tracks heard in the movie. Here is a quote from Wikipedia which Hrodbert supplied the link too:
"Many of the girls had not played these instruments before,[3] but they did play the performances in the film after training for only 5 months.[4] To prove this was not movie-magic, a tour was organized after the film with a live CD released shortly after". [5]
Wow, some only had five months training. Pretty fast learners.
