Yeah, there were swinging bands - think Isham Jones, Glen Gray, Ray Noble, who played both sides of the hot/sweet spectrum - and swing bands, which were still, perforce, all Black, and were called hot bands.
Garber was actually selling platters in 1933-'34 (hard to do then), after taking over a Canadian Lombardo-styled band and pretty much doing "Lombardo with a beat," right down to the single note guitar fills. Good example:
John Lofgren Monkey Boots Shinki Horsebuttt - $1,136 The classic monkey boot silhouette in an incredibly rich Shinki russet horse leather. 
Grant Stone Diesel Boot Dark Olive Chromexcel - $395 Goodyear welted, Horween Chromexcel, classic good looks. 
Schott 568 Vandals Jacket - $1,250 The classic Perfecto motorcycle jacket, in a very special limited-edition Schott double rider style.
