Últimamente ando muy liado y no tengo mucho tiempo para hacer cosas ni para actualizar el blog, así que voy a tirar de despensa.
Hace un tiempo que encontré éste usuario de YouTube que se ha currado una impresionante selección de los mejores momentos de la música de Big Band y Rock, abarcando desde 1924 a 2003. Los vídeos están perfectamente documentados con el autor y año de cada fragmento; escucharlos es como si estuvieran poniendo en la radio la mejor música de casi un siglo y fuéramos recorriendo rápidamente todo el dial...
No puedo resistirme a fusilarlo entero. Os los pongo con las listas de fragmentos correspondientes:
