I was born at the tail end of the Swing era, but still loved that style of music. I remember going to the dances at school and loved the feeling. This guy Stephen Sayer is the embodiment of Swing. He is so effortlessly graceful that it is amazing to me.

I have always try to imagine my grandparents at this time of the song and listening and dancing to it all dressed up in a club or dance hall of that time young smiling and dancing close.
