CD Reviews

Excellent swing collection
jon fraze | mission viejo, ca United States | 05/17/2009
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Whether you're a devotee of big band swing music, or someone wanting a good introduction to the genre, this is an excellent collection. The set contains four very comprehensive CDs with some of the best music by some of the best bands of the swing era. Also includes a fair number of tracks which are hard to find elsewhere. All in all, this is one of my favorite anthology collections."
