GLENN MILLER & HIS ORCHESTRA  Большой список больших бэндов

Дорогие друзья, мы приятно удивлены вашей эрудицией. Спасибо всем, кто прислал нам списки биг-бэндов, спасибо всем, кто прислал нам списки просто оркестров. Особенно радует, что вы знаете такие сетевые места, как AMG & Ultimate Band List

А вот и письмо нашего победителя:

Уважаемые ЗвукиРУ!

Посылаю вам список биг-бэндов (вестимо надеясь выиграть оные билеты на концерт Биг-бэнда Глена Миллера) Он, к сожалению, далеко не полон, но это хоть что-то. :-)
С уважением,
Сергей Карамаев
