Well, Robbie WIlliams did a whole album of Swing Classics recently.
I'd suggest anything from The Rat Pack, but here's a few classics to get you started...
<ul type="square">[*]"Mack The Knife"[*]"It Was A Very Good Year"[*]"Mr. Bojangles"[*]"Beyond The Sea"[/list]Some great tunes out there !
Try Mr. Bojangles man. It's fantastic. Anything from the The Rat Pack though. Excellent stuff.
Plus, you can pick massive compilations of their stuff really cheaply nowadays. I suggest you check it out. Especially if you can get a live CD. I have one with Dean Martin out of his face cracking joke after joke about his drinking. Very funny.
