Marek,

Oh, contraire!!  Coon-Sanders was the music that fueled the ROARING 
Twenties!
I have several of their CD's.  Here's one of the best.  No crooning ballads!

Down in Oklahoma, Bob Wills used to listen to C-S on the radio, and that's
how he conceived of his Western Swing band.   No crooning ballads there, 
either.
