It's like when Paul Ryan said his favorite band was Rage and Tom Morello wrote an oped about it

It's so fucking stupid. I'm not a big fan of either Green Day or RATM's music (nothing wrong with it, it's just not my thing), but I don't live under a rock. I've actually heard of the existence of American Idiot because I've been a warm body in America since 1977.
When someone like me who would rather listen to 1930s and 40s music knows enough about Green Day to not even bat an eye hearing this, these people are just drooling imbeciles. But then everyone here already knew that.
Got some 30s and 40s recs?
Sure. Lately, I have been listening to the Mills Brothers and early Ella Fitzgerald when she sang with Chick Webb's band.
Nice, not as familiar with the old trad pop stuff but I always like the early jazz
I love Ella Fitzgerald but I’m pretty new to her stuff. How do I find the stuff she did with Webb’a band? I’ve got Spotify and can download anything.
I don't know about it streaming. I bought this CD boxed set when it came out a decade ago and ripped it to my computer. Maybe it's on Spotify? Or maybe just look for a collection of Ella on Decca? Although she was with them until the 50s, I think.

Thanks. I didn’t find the record on Spotify so illl just download it from orpheus or soulseek. Thanks for the suggestion :)
No problem. Enjoy!
