This is a listing of some of my favorite West Coast Swing dance songs. This will give you a good start on your music collection if you want really hot individual songs. Unfortunately, there aren't that many good songs per album.
If you want more bang for your buck, there are good collection albums of WC Swing music. Debbie Ramsey and Wesley Boz have a web site where they sell good dance music collection CD's. Another good source for music compilations is DJ Dan Mezrich's web site.
Note: The best source that I have found on the Internet for buying CD's cheap is CD Universe (see banner above). Their prices were lower than any of the other sources I looked at.
