Gimme Music Suggestions

I recently started listenting to music from the 1920's-1950's mostly because of Fallout 3/New Vegas.

Anyways, what are some good songs from this era?

Please don't post songs from Fallout 3 or New Vegas; I have them all.

Thanks!

I have this exact song stuck in my head right now.

Seems like you might want to look for more big band stuff.

That Hard Bop Chase song is pretty good.

Maybe I'll have to get the game.

Soundtracks for both Mafia games are from those eras.

Hell yes.

Must of cost them a pretty penny to get the rights to that song.

I haven't played Fallout, so I don't know exactly what you're looking for, but Nina Simone (Feeling Good, Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood, Sinnerman, Mississippi Goddam, etc)? Barely on the upper cusp of the era you're looking for, but pretty great. This collection may also be of interest. Other than that I'm afraid that era's kind of a blind spot for me, musically.

Oh, and Rumble. Watching Jimmy Page blissfully air guitar to it in "It Might Get Loud" is pretty fantastic.

I'm not gonna recommend any particular songs, but listen to mostly everything by Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra and Screamin Jay Hawkins have. And as said above, check both Mafia soundtracks, they're amazing !

I recommend Bluegrass Gospel music such as "I'll Fly Away"...
