"Faded Love" is one of the great songs of any kind--"Heartaches by the Number", "Pick Me Up on Your Way Down", "Sea of Heartbreak", "Drivin' Nails in My Coffin", "I can't Stop Lovin' You" , "Oh, Lonesome Me", "Chatanooga Shoeshine Boy", "Take Me Back to Tulsa"--

A few things to remember, first, that, at least for the folks who love and listened to this music over the years, it is, more than anything else, dance music, so when you put your sets together, balance the swing numbers with waltzes, two-steps and such--if you keep the dance feel to it, all will be well--

Second thing is(and this is especially for you MickyMan)--the folks who originated this stuff thought of it as Jazz--they played Jazz rhythms, jazz solos, and often played jazz standards--Anything a jump band would play, they would play--

Third, a lot of fifties rock'n'roll, particularly rockabilly, is fair game for swing/honky tonk bands

Some folks to listen to (other than those mentioned above), Merle Travis(not the solo fingerpicking stuff), Red Foley, Faron Young, The Lightcrust Doughboys--
