The King of Swing

Louis Prima - The Wildest!

So I'm falling in love with 50's music..
This album was so much fun to listen to. Like Sinatra it has such a magical quality about it. Totally carefree and lighthearted, I almost want to grab an umbrella and dance around, almost. Described as the 'King of Swingers', often his voice has been likened to Louis Armstrong, with it's raspy sound. He was not only a trumpet player/songwriter, but an actor too and had bags of personality.
Another album I am happy to have been acquainted with!

I can feel your heart

As always, I like to share my 'current obsessions'/guilty pleasure of the moment. I admit I have several tracks I CANNOT go a day (or admittedly a few hours..) without listening to.
Firstly,
TOM ODELL
Odell played live at the Burberry A/W 13 show this year and that's when it all began..
This song + Burberry's finest = A very content Crissie.

Enjoy!x
