| About this scrapbook page: |

Always loved the music of the swing era and the big bands: Glenn Miller, Tommy Dorsey, Les Brown, Benny Goodman and all! This is for the Fabulous Forties challenge. I included Madeline's (Grandma M's) dad - Sam Rowbotham and the Futurists - in it from her recent page. How great would it have been to have a dad that was a band leader in the 40's and 50's?

Excellent forties page Mike, you've captured the era perfectly and what a wonderfully thoughtful gesture in including Madeline's Dad among the kings of swing at that time. I know just how much this will mean to her - you are a smashing man and a lovely friend!
