prompt: I’m going to be leading a swing dance and lindy hop workshop and ran out of time to make a playlist. Can you brainstorm 15 good swing dance songs for me to use? I’d prefer that all the tracks be jazz, but the list can include different tempos and styles of jazz so long as they work for 6 and 8 count footwork. Give me the song title, the performer(s), and the record release year. Also note whether it's a high energy song or a mellow tempo.
