"If you even like swing a little (even if your sick of the clothing, margarine and car ads using "swing" to sell), you'll love this CD. It's hot. This band has a catchy sound that'll have you dancin'. My 5 year old son even runs around singing "Caviar and Chittlins". Great stuff."
Great blues/swing dance tunes!

"I like these guys for the same reason I like the Mighty Blue Kings -- they combine good blues rythyms with neo-swing to create something different from BBVD, Royal Crown Revue, or anything else you're likely to hear out of California. Great stuff!"
Can't get enough of this disc.

"Great horns, and certainly not a stylized, "swing is now cool" sound. Wish they would tour near NY--I'd love to hear them live."

"This record is very very unique. Somewhat of a "swing" record I guess but I usually don't like that kind of thing. This was a very enjoyable record from start to finish...It kind of reminds me of Louis Jordan or perhaps Cab Calloway with a lot more energy. Also has a great singer who sounds somewhat like Tom Waits. -SB-"
