    [In

     the
     1930s],
     the
    
    world
     was
     a
     much
    
    different
     place.
    
    Hundreds
     and
    
    hundreds
     of
     big
    
    bands
     performed
    
    music
     that
     was
    
    melodic
     and
    
    swinging.
     Couples
    
    touched
     while
     they
    
    danced.
     Major
    
    clarinetists
     were
    
    matinee
     idols.
     It
    
    was
     not
     unusual
    
    for
     a
     popular
     Swing
    
    orchestra
     to
     play
    
    for
     six
     months
     at
    
    the
     same
     venue
     to
    
    large
     crowds.
     The
    
    Swing
     era
     (1935-46)
    
    was
     a
     special
     time
    
    when
     jazz
     and
     pop
    
    music
     overlapped,
    
    trombonists
     were
    
    always
     in
     demand,
    
    and
     it
     seemed
     that
    
    anyone
     who
     had
    
    a
     fresh
     idea
     for
     a
    
    new
     sound
     could
    
    catch
     on
     and
    
    become
     a
     household
    
    name.
