I would have to pick Sentinmental Journey.
My half-sister and her husband used to sing that to each other. As a child, I could tell how much they loved each other.
Not being a big band era person, I still have respect for Duke Ellington and Glenn Miller as well as all the others. It is really great music to dance to. When I was a child, that was about all there was on the radio. My Dad loved the Mills Brothers. I would also consider anything done by Louie Armstrong with a big band to be great.
This is not a big band era group, but I loved, absolutely loved, Booker T and the MG's for "Green Onions" and "Time is Tight." Sad that they were killed in an accident with some others while touring.

I loved this era of music, even though I was not even born, but my parents were young then and my father was a very brilliant pianist, and used to play them, when they had parties, and they would all stand round the piano singing.
Oh my, have times changed! By the time I was a teenager, we we rocking.
Chattanooga Choo Choo: Glen Miller
I've got Rhythm: Fats Waller
Beguine the Beguine: Artie Shaw
It Don't Mean a Thing: Duke Ellington
Not to ever leave out, "Ole Blue Eyes." Who I saw live at Sun City.
I've got all the 1920 - 1940's era, I just love my music.

I grew up listening to OLD country and BIG BANDS. When I was in High School, I had a combo (guitar, drums, sax, piano)...our intro was our version of IN THE MOOD.

I was pretty young, but my mom played them all the time. my best friend and I would always sing"Sentimental Journey". We liked the Woodchoppers Ball, You Made Me Love you, Satan Doll, Take the A Train. Gosh, I probably have them in a box, forgot about them.
