Producer's Notes: "Chanteuse Alex Pangman is known as Canada's Sweetheart of Swing. A well-deserved title in my humble opinion. I first met Alex over 20 years ago at the Toronto Lindy Exchange. She warmly welcomed me to her hometown, and I can attest that she is as talented a dancer as she is a jazz vocalist. Interviewed in 2006 and featured through countless releases over the years, it was hard for me to pick a favorite song to highlight. Ultimately I selected “Topsy Turvy". This swinging number transports the listener straight back to the 1930s through Alex's playful composition and elegant vocal delivery. - Jesse"
