I have some random tracks from Gene Vincent, Dale Hawkins, Roy Orbison and Eddie Cochran. There were downloaded for a show I put together that focused on songs from different decades.

Jazz, swing, and big band music was big in the 1930s and 40s
Bing Crosby and Fred Astaire were pretty big in the 1930s and then Frank Sinatra got big around '39 (if memory serves me right).
