미국의 1930년대와 1940년대를 주름잡았던 스윙은 최초의 주류 대중음악이었다. 재즈 아티스트 타미 도시, 베니 굿맨, 글렌 밀러 등이 이끌었던 흥겨운 빅 밴드 음악은 미 전역을 춤 바다로 만들 정도로 상당한 반향을 일으켰다. 그러나 절대 강자는 없었다. 1950년대 로큰롤의 탄생은 단숨에 스윙을 '지는 해'로 만들었다. 대중들은 브라스 악기 대신 전기 기타에 몸을 맡기기 시작했다. 결국 스윙은 누구하나 찾는 사람 없이 쓸쓸히 역사의 저편으로 사라지고 말았다. 하지만 1994년 뉴욕 출신의 브라이언 세쳐는 골동품으로 남아있던 스윙에 다시 생명을 불어넣었다. 17인조 대규모 악단으로 구성된 그의 밴드는 데뷔작 을 통해 '스윙의 부활'을 선포했다. 이어 밴드는 1998년 3집 로 그래미 시상식에서 2개 부문의 상을 타며 다시 스윙 열풍을 이끌어냈다. 이번에 발표한 4집 앨범은 복고풍의 아닌 '21세기 스윙'의 미래상을 들려주고 있다. 이제 스윙을 몰락시켰던 주범인 전기기타를 브라이언 세쳐가 연주하는 것은 놀랄 일도 아니다. 신보에서는 처음으로 여성 백 보컬을 기용하고 힙합 비트를 사용하는 등 옛날 음악에 젊은 감각을 불어넣었다. 스윙의 고전 'Pennsylvania 6-5000', 'Gettin` in the mood' 등 브라이언 세쳐 오케스트라만의 독특한 해석이 눈길을 끈다. 듀크 엘링턴의 명곡 'Caravan' 역시 놓칠 수 없는 곡이다. 뉴 스윙 무브먼트의 대표 작품. -수록곡- 1.

Well, the house is a-rockin' Don't bother knockin' Yeah the house is a-rockin' Don't bother knockin' Yeah the house is a-rockin' Don't bother come on in

Well, the house is a-rockin' Don't bother knockin' Yeah the house is a-rockin' Don't bother knockin' Yeah the house is a-rockin' Don't bother come on in

I asked the fortune teller where my love might be She gazed into her crystal ball then looked straight up at me I told her when your eyes met mine you cast an evil spell I made a deal with the devil man, my soul to him I'd sell

When you're young and so in love as we And bewildered by the world we see Why do people hurt us so Only those in love would know What a town without pity can do
If we stop to gaze upon a star People talk about how bad we are Ours is not an easy age We're like tigers in a cage What a town without pity can do
The young have problems, many problems We need an understanding heart Why don't they help us, try to help us Before this clay and granite planet falls apart
Take these eager lips and hold me fast I'm afraid this kind of joy can't last How can we keep love alive How can anything survive When these little minds tear you in two What a town without pity can do
How can we keep love alive How can anything survive When these little minds tear you in two What a town without pity can do
No, it isn't very pretty What a town without pity can do
There's the rockabilly cats with their pomps real high Wearin' black drape coats, all real gone guys Cool skinheads with their rolled-up jeans Lookin' real tough and mighty mean
There's a rumble in Brighton tonight Ringside seats for the neighborhood fight There ain't a damn thing that the cops can do There's a rumble in Brighton tonight
They sew fishhooks under their collars They got razors in their shoes I said, "Go cat go," their battle cry World War III is startin' to brew
Now the skinheads all use blackjacks And they're lookin' mighty mean They got chains wrapped around their fingers And their heads are all shaved clean
There's a rumble in Brighton tonight Ringside seats for the neighborhood fight There ain't a damn thing that the cops can do There's a rumble in Brighton tonight
Well, there ain't a man left standin' So let's all go get a beer No team is a winner So we'll see you all next year
There's a rumble in Brighton tonight Ringside seats for the neighborhood fight There ain't a damn thing that the cops can do There's a rumble in Brighton tonight
Rumble in Brighton tonight Rumble on the beach tonight Rumble in Brighton tonight Rumble on the beach tonight
There ain't a damn thing that the cops can do Line right up for a sideline view Ringside seats for the neighborhood fight There's a rumble in Brighton tonight
Now some people got it and some people don't I'm talkin' 'bout gettin' all the things in life that you want You can wish it might happen You can call it dumb luck But that guy's so lucky, he's just way much too much
He's the man with the magic touch He's the man with the magic touch Don't give me all that "got lucky" such and such He's the man with the magic touch
He won an all-expenses-paid vacation on a cruise ship 'round the world And when he gets home, he don't bother lookin' for no girl He's got a straight to the ace He got a royal flush Baby go rub his back for good luck
He's the man with the magic touch He's the man with the magic touch Don't give me all that "got lucky" such and such He's the man with the magic touch
He goes back to back, he goes hip to hip He goes face to face, now here' s the tip If he don't want it He throws it right back He knows some poor sucker's gonna take up the slack
He's the man with the magic touch He's the man with the magic touch Don't give me all that "got lucky" such and such He's the man with the magic touch
My blood is percolatin' I'm set for detonation When it comes to good lovin' He ain't hesitatin' He's the man with the magic touch
I had one cup of coffee and a cigarette Then I rolled out of bed with my shirt soaking wet If I was gonna get movin', now was the time So I packed up my bags and my Gretsch '59
It's a tough life, love But when push comes to shove It's the only life for Johnny Johnny, Johnny Kool Played his guitar and he sang like a fool Don't let the big boys grind you down
Johnny Johnny, Johnny Kool He was a rebel that broke all the rules Everyone can't stop talkin' about The legend of Johnny Kool
It was darker than black, not a star in the sky So I revved on the engine and let that Mercury fly With the wind blowin' by at a 105 It gave me a thrill just bein' alive
It's a tough life, love But when push comes to shove It's the only life for Johnny Johnny, Johnny Kool Played his guitar and he sang like a fool Don't let the big boys grind you down
Johnny Johnny, Johnny Kool He was a rebel that broke all the rules Everyone can't stop talkin' about The legend of Johnny Kool
Rumor had it now this cat had it all He was loud, he was wild, and he sure rocked the hall Some guy grabbed my arm and I jumped on the stage And I was rockin' with a guy who was twice my age
It's a tough life, love But when push comes to shove It's the only life for Johnny Johnny, Johnny Kool Played his guitar and he sang like a fool Don't let the big boys grind you down
Johnny Johnny, Johnny Kool He was a rebel that broke all the rules Everyone can't stop talkin' about The legend of Johnny Kool
As I came across the Pecos and broke west of the line This thunderstorm was running and it ran me out of time So I was racing through the rain with this rig from Tennessee When a voice cut through the static, bringing comfort home to me
They were singing I ain't sittin' in no shack Got me a Ford right out the back So come on and roll me over If I ain't there in nothing flat With a honky-tonk attitude I'll be doing the straight line swing C'mon and grab your horseshoe And throw it in the ring
Now the levee wall was breaking, rocks were rolling from the ridge The announcer broke in, saying there was a bus trapped on the bridge So I turned my rig around, I was axle-deep in mud And I found those people stranded, the bridge was groaning in the flood
Still my radio was singing I ain't sittin' in no shack Got me a Ford right out the back So come on and roll me over If I ain't there in nothing flat With a honky-tonk attitude I'll be doing the straight line swing C'mon and grab your horseshoe And throw it in the ring
With the grinding of my engine, I hauled those people free With the raging river rising, the driver came thanking me So I told him about the message; he said, That can't be right The storm knocked out the radio tower late last Saturday night
But through the static we heard singing I ain't sittin' in no shack Got me a Ford right out the back So come on and roll me over
If I ain't there in nothing flat With a honky-tonk attitude I'll be doing the straight line swing C'mon and grab your horseshoe And throw it in the ring
Them old truckers gonna tell you down the lonely interstate Out the dead air on the waveband, the Texas Playboys break You'll hear a keening voice, Bob Wills is with you as you drive And you'll know you got a broadcast straight from 1935
Can you hear him singing I ain't sittin' in no shack Got me a Ford right out the back So come on and roll me over
If I ain't there in nothing flat With a honky-tonk attitude I'll be doing the straight line swing C'mon and grab your horseshoe And throw it in the ring
Cruisin' 'round this hopeless town, Down the lovely streets of desire You're my angel of mercy all dressed in white And I'm a smokin' gun for hire
Takin' a walk on the wild side Johnny's got a habit that he can't hide Livin' life from high to high When nighttime comes, you can hear him cry
Buzz buzz goes the needle With each jolt of pain, I call out your name Buzz buzz goes the needle And I sacrifice, not in vain, not in vain
Day is night and night is day Being alive just gets in the way The twisting snake inside his brain Whispers to him, "Time to kill the pain"
They told him opportunity was just around the corner Well, he wore out his shoes tryin' to find that corner He might just pick himself up again Until it happens, until then
Buzz buzz goes the needle With each jolt of pain, I call out your name Buzz buzz goes the needle And I sacrifice, not in vain, not in vain
He's not a new tattoo dedicated to you As the ink and the blood mix with pain It's a man on a white horse goin' nowhere And the man has no face or no name
With the walls closin' in, he's runnin' for cover He's spinnin' way out of control He might just pick himself up again Until it happens, until then
Buzz buzz goes the needle With each jolt of pain, I call out your name Buzz buzz goes the needle And I sacrifice, not in vain, not in vain
Buzz buzz goes the needle Each drop of blood is a token of love Buzz buzz goes the needle And I want a sign from above
Hey, Louis Prima We gotta get the hell outta town 'Cause I've been datin' a chick with some swively hips And her boyfriend don't want me around
And wouldn't it be kinda funny If we got outta town with all the money Hey, Louis Prima You sure know how to lay it on down
We were doin' all-nighters Cruisin' to a gig in Vegas Don't know what was goin' on But it surely did become contagious!
When we pulled up to the show Ten thousand people or more all yelled out "Man your band is truly outrageous!"
Hey, Louis Prima Man, you make 'em jump and shout I got a five-dollar bet on a two-dollar bill You're gonna show 'em what it's all about And wouldn't it be kinda funny If we got outta town with all the money Hey, Louis Prima You sure know how to lay it on down
Hey, Louis Prima There's something that I just gotta know Have you still got that old black magic Or are you just a gigolo?
All we need is some Sam Butera Then we can say "Buona Sera" Hey, Louis Prima You sure know how to lay it on down
When it's raining and times are hard And there's too much junk in the backyard You hope for a rainbow Be it lotto or keno In the trailer park That's the light in the dark In all of the valleys Under lucky stars By the satellite dishes And the non-running cars I'm feeling all the people dreaming
Blue tiles are cool All around the pool Greek columns are fine But give me a deal on the vine Nothing pretentious I haven't changed I got sixty billion But I'm still the same
The pool is hot The beer is cold The cigar costs a lot And the wine is old Where the car reps dream Like Walter Mitty Oh, book me a berth In Sammy Davis City, yeah!
Well, Annie and Danny Are growing too fast And I can't fix the hammock 'Cause I'm feeling half-assed Those basket ball hoops Became chicken coops There's a motel for sale A cafe and a jail In all of the valleys Under lucky Stars By the satillite dishes and the non-running cars
I'm feeling all the people dreaming Blue tiles are cool All around the pool Greek columns are fine But give me a deal on the vine Nothing pretentious I haven't changed I got sixty billion But I'm still the same
The pool is hot The beer is cold The cigar costs a lot And the wine is old Where the car reps dream Like Walter Mitty Oh, book me a berth In Sammy Davis City, yeah!
I'm feeling all the people dreaming Feeling all the people dreaming Feeling all the people ... dreaming
This cat's on a hot tin roof Drinkin' that whiskey, 96 proof Don't need no doctor, don't feel no pain My legs are just two steps ahead of my brain
This cat's on a hot tin roof This cat's gonna shake it loose This cat don't get the blues 'Cause this cat's shakin' on a hot tin roof
This cat's been out on the town I'm the cat's meow, I'm the king with a crown My head is spinnin' and I got the shakes I can't stop now 'cause I got no brakes
This cat's on a hot tin roof This cat's gonna shake it loose This cat don't get the blues 'Cause this cat's shakin' on a hot tin roof
There ain't no point in holdin' me down I'll kick and I'll scratch and I'll howl Hey hound dog, get outta my way 'Cause this cat is on the prowl
This cat's on a hot tin roof Jumpin' up and down like a long neck goose Shimmy and shake, baby you can't fail Rockin' so hard that it's off the scale
This cat's on a hot tin roof This cat's gonna shake it loose This cat don't get the blues 'Cause this cat's shakin' on a hot tin roof
> I got a little boogie but it ain't too clean It's real low down and it's kinda mean The dirty boogie The dirty boogie When I get low down, it's the dirty boogie for me The dirty boogie What's it called? The dirty boogie Hey you all The dirty boogie How's it go? The dirty boogie Not too slow When I get low down, it's the dirty boogie for me Well you rattle and shake, you moan and groan A girl like you I could never bring home The dirty boogie The dirty boogie When I get low down, it's the dirty boogie for me The dirty boogie What's it called? The dirty boogie Hey you all The dirty boogie How's it go? The dirty boogie Not too slow When I get low down, it's the dirty boogie for me They're shakin' their hips and scream and shout And doin' things I can't even talk about The dirty boogie Catch my drift The dirty boogie When I get low down, it's the dirty boogie for me The dirty boogie What's it called? The dirty boogie Hey you all The dirty boogie How's it go? The dirty boogie Not too slow When I get low down, it's the dirty boogie for me
This old house once knew its children This old house once knew its wife This old house was home and comfort As they fought the storms of life
This old house once rang with laughter This old house heard many shouts Now it trembles in the darkness When the lightning walks about
Ain't gonna need this house no longer Ain't gonna need this house no more Ain't got time to fix the shingles Ain't got time to fix the floor Ain't got time to oil the hinges Nor to mend the window pain Ain't gonna need this house no longer He's getting ready to meet the saints
This old house is gettin' shaky This old house is gettin' old This old house has seen the rain This old house has seen the cold
Oh his knees are gettin' chilly But he feels no fear or pain 'Cause he sees an angel peepin' Through a broken window pane
Ain't gonna need this house no longer Ain't gonna need this house no more Ain't got time to fix the shingles Ain't got time to fix the floor Ain't got time to oil the hinges Nor to mend the window pain Ain't gonna need this house no longer He's getting ready to meet the saints

You only go around once on this big spinnin' planet of love So don't be wastin' my time Tell me what you're dreamin' of We'll take a rocket to the moon and when we get that far I'll hang your coat and hat upon a shooting star Let's live it up! Let's live it up! Let's live it up!
Hang up the cat and put the dog out to dry Roll up the bird, let the alligator wave bye-bye We'll take a sloe gin to China, a train to Peru In a rusty old steamer or a leaky canoe Let's live it up! Let's live it up! Let's live it up!
Around the block in a hot balloon sounds awfully good to me Or a seat on the wing of a jumbo jet flying straight to Mercury
What's the matter with me? Baby I've been such a fool We'll hop on a raft and navigate around in the pool We'll take a rocket to the moon and when we get that far I'll hang your coat and hat upon a shooting star Let's live it up! Let's live it up! Let's live it up!
