Greetings from Gretna, Virgina!! I am a friend and fan of Gary Dalton. Having grown up in the same community, church, and schools I know what a special person and musician he truly is. I am so proud of his accomplishments and certainly hope the Metro Jazz Club realizes what a treasure they have in their company! Much love to you and the family, Gary!!!

Your November performance at the Aurura Theater was one for the book! I brought ten people to the show and every one of them went home satisfied and impressed with the energy and quality of the show. I've already reserved my tickets for February and am working on bringing more friends!

I Just want to thank the Band for the wonderful time they added to my husband's 70th. birthday party. I had heard that the band was good, but didn't expect, "GREAT". Everyone at the party is still raving about you guys. Couldn't have asked for such great dancing music and singers. Added to the band was the wonderful singer and a disc jockey who added her talent between sets which really kept things swinging. What was really nice is that not only were the elder set of guest happy but so were the younger set, especially with the disc jockey who played music from their generation. I would not hesitate to hire your band again and have told friends about you, even those that were not there. Again, thank you for a great time.

Garden Plaza at Lawrenceville was delighted with the performance of the Metro Jazz Club band. Their music is excellent with a broad mix of tunes for all to enjoy, the members are friendly and professional. We will definitely book this band again and would recommend them to anyone!

Just came across your site, looking for info on swing-era music in the Tampa and Sarasota area.

Your samples are dynamite; wish we were able to attend the gigs.

Maybe we will; thinking of relocating to your area. Looking for a location for an old fashioned soda fountain with jukebox, etc. selling music and movies from this era. Maybe Tampa's the place. Son is a student in Gainesville.

Go Gators!

THE METRO JAZZ CLUB PLAYS...
One O'Clock Jump, Count Basie
> A jazz standard, a 12-bar blues instrumental, written in 1937 by Count Basie, with arrangement from Eddie Durham and Buster Smith. The original recording of the tune by Basie and his band is noted for the saxophone work of Herschel Evans and Lester Young; trumpeting by Buck Clayton, Walter Page on bass, and Basie himself on piano. It was reportedly titled "Blue Ball", at first, but a radio announcer feared that title was too risqué. It was listed in the Songs of the Century. The song is typical of Basie's early riff style. Instrumentation based on "head arrangements" where each section makes up their part based on what the other sections are playing. Individuals take turns improvising over the top of the entire sound. Basie later released "Two O'Clock Jump" and "Jumping at the Woodside" in a similar style.
