Baby It's Cold Outside



Love and strength. They will always stand together.




​"If u dont KNOW how ur supposed to SWING, dont ring me until ya'll got it down better then!" my friend shouted #microprompt word 194: SWING




Strong comeback of Swing occured in 1998 with bands like the Cherry Poppin Daddies and The Straycats. #microprompt 194


#microprompt word 194: SWING "allright, i'll swing with my grizzly bears and hit you for 2" one turtle rambled onto the other one beside her.

I wasn't feeling the band last night. They kept trying, but they just couldn't swing. Man, that sax player sure knew how to swing tho! #vss



The ability to SWING is what distinguishes a good #jazz player from a bad one. #microprompt #194 12/7 #musicmonday #GoodMorning #amwriting

Lack of soul (Kenny G) or showboating (Jaco Pastorius toward the end of his career) are antithetical to swing.

(While a good Swing #musician must know how to "swing," one can SWING in just about any genre involving improvised music). #microprompt #194

Normally used in the context of acoustic jazz, but equally applicable to fusion, jazz-funk, etc. Not be confused with "swing" as a genre.
