Would someone who taped the "Swing" program (?#6) please verify that the "incidental music" to the customary "socio-racial" introduction was played by Tonmmy Dorsey's orchestra? If so, it seems a minimal, condescending "unacknowledgment" of what was arguably the greatest of ALL the big bands, whatever the style - ballads or jazz.
