    Choo Choo Cha Boogie is a swing tune that employs a backbeat. That’s exactly why it’s a transitional tune between swing and rock n roll.

    That "Battle of the Brass" was fought with exactly one brass instrument, the trumpet. The other instruments are tenor saxophones, which are not brass, but woodwinds.

    Not to mention the balls, brass, you have to have to play this in public, stand up there in front of all those people...
