Dear Kaye,
The hymn "This Little Light of Mine" by Arthur Loes (lyrics) and Harry Dixon
(music) has been popular with Australian, British and European jazz bands
since 1957.
American recordings include:
*Barbara Dane (with the Andrew Sisters, a gospel group from CA) for a
Capitol LP in 1961
*Amanda Ambrose for a Victor LP in 1963
*Lillian Boutte in 1984 and 1985
*Sylvia Williams for GHB in 1993
*Stephen Scott for Verve in 1996
*Boilermaker Jazz Band in 2000.
Perhaps one of the above is the rockin' swing recording you are searching
for.
Kind regards,
Bill.
