  I’m 67 years old and grew up in a neighborhood filled with WWII veterans who were my friends’ fathers. When there was a block party (in the early to mid 1960’s) all the Moms and Dads would bring out their big band music vinyl, and would blare it and dance to it all night long! &nbsp;None of us kids could believe OUR PARENTS could jitter-bug that much AT THEIR AGE!! &nbsp;(They were actually only in their late 30’s and early 40’s but to us, they were old Mom and Dad…..until we saw the jitterbug queens and kings!!). &nbsp;❤❤❤<br><br>I still tear up whenever I think back on those memories. 😢

  Hello. I am 88 years old and grew up loving and dancing to the Glenn Miller Orchestra. Bring back the good old days of great music like Glenn Miller and all the Big Bands. Thanks for the memories.

  My mom was born in 1926 so she was a 15 year old teenager in 1941 enjoying Glenn Miller. She passed in 1998 and left me her collection on Glenn Miller on vinyl.

  My Mom and Dad danced to &quot;Moonlight Serenade&quot; at their fiftieth wedding anniversary celebration in 1990. &nbsp;A few years later, when I moved in to care for my Mom after Dad passed away, she and I danced to Glenn Miller every Saturday in the living room. When she was in a nursing home with dementia, which held her for at least fifteen years, we danced again to the tunes as we hummed, until she could no longer walk, or dance, or sing. What warm and wonderful memories Glenn Miller&apos;s music evokes! It will always lump my throat!

  I&apos;m 19 years old. And I love this music. It&apos;s so wonderful. In childhood I loved to watch Sun Valley Serenade.

  I miss my dad, he died on May 1st, a day after he turned 88😢; he loved music so much. He didn’t have much materially but fully enjoyed the simple things in life and left me with so much wisdom about life and what’s truly important.

  I am 60 years old, so this was music when my grandparents were young parents. &nbsp;The music of The Greatest Generation. &nbsp;Can&apos;t beat it! &nbsp;Pure class.

  I am 83 years and this is the music I still listen now, in Spain where I live, instead of watching all bad news on television. I start with country music at 7. am, and in the afternoon I listen these relaxing music of big bands of the 40. All this beauiful music is nice to listen.
