The One and Only Tommy Dorsey Orchestra

In Big Band history, the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra is recognized as one of the best all around dance bands. Popular almost from the moment it signed with RCA Victor in 1935, it could swing with the best of them. No other band could come close to Tommys when it came to playing ballads, especially with the addition of Frank Sinatra as male vocalist.

Opus One, Song Of India, Ill Never Smile Again, Marie and Boogie Woogie are part of a string of hit records that continue to be performed by The TDO stil
