    Sultan of Swing

    Uploaded by

    The song describes a band playing jazz music in a park in London on a rainy night. Few people are in the park due to the rain, but those who are inside feel good hearing the music, which is described as "Dixie double four time" and "that sound way on down south". The instrumental section repeats the progression played in the intro and verses.
