    Go Go Swing Live is a

    live album recorded and released in 1986 by the Washington, D.C.-based go-go band Chuck Brown & the Soul Searchers.[4][5][6] The album was recorded at the Crystal Skate (in Temple Hills, Maryland) and at the RSVP (a defunct nightclub in Washington, D.C.)[7][6]

    The album consists of go-go renditions of classic

    swing songs performed with a go-go beat. The album is especially known for remakes of the calypso song "Run Joe", and the swing songs "Stormy Monday" and "It Don't Mean a Thing". The album was ranked #1 as the "Best Album Recorded in D.C." by DCist.[7]
