I've been discovering music from the 1930s and 1940s lately, particularly vocalists and big bands. I've been listening to a station on satellite radio that has piqued my interest. Anyone with insights as to what (more obscure) artists to look for or places online that you trust would be appreciated!
I don't need the really well-known bandleaders and singers, as I think I have a handle on them. Thanks!

Try these: Glen Grey and Casa Loma orchestra, Ben Pollack, Red Norvo, Jimmy Lunceford, Chick Webb & Bunny Berigan.
Big Band Music is timeless. Good as today as then.

You might find something on live365.com. Also, independent public radio stations(NPR affiliates) may have what you are looking for, usually these programs air only once a week, on the weekend, for only a few hours. Do a Google search, type in "NPR affiliates playing Big Band" to see if there is a station broadcasting in your area. Check their programing schedule.
