From This Week's Flood Jam Session

This week's freebie from The 1937 Flood jam session features a Tin Pan Alley special from more than nine decades ago.

1919 was an amazing year in music. With The Great War over, Tin Pan Alley was pumping out the hits again. "12th Street Rag" and "Royal Garden Blues," "Swanee" and "I Wish I Could Shimmy Like My Sister Kate."

Meanwhile, on the other end of the block, a trio of composers -- Charles McCarron, Casey Morgan and Arthur Swanstrom -- were writing "The Blues My Naughty Sweetie Gives to Me" ... just so The Flood could flirt with it 90 years later. Click here for the audio.

By the way, tunes from the jam sessions make up our weekly Flood podcasts. You can subscribe for free and get the music automatically delivered to your computer each Thursday. For details on that, click here.
