I was DJing a father/daughter dance a while ago and the theme was Chicago gangsters in the prohibition era. So I came up with these tracks that gave that feel, but weren't necessarily of that era. Newer songs from the movie that was popular at the time and lesser known tracks that just fit for me. Like the Shuckin' & Jivin' comp from a little bit ago, this pick just has the feel, even though the songs are from all over. Tell me which ones you would have added instead. Always like to hear that. And yes the cover is of my daughter and some of her friends at that dance.
