"Dust off and get your hi-fi's ready for some new stereophonic recordings! On September 10th 2002, Michael Andrew Records simultaneously released two new, long awaited, albums. `Destination Moon' and `Michael Andrew Pays Tribute to Frank Sinatra' featuring interpretations of well-known classics with his Swingerhead Big Band.



Michael enlisted help from his top-notch musicians from both Swingerhead and The Coconut Club Orchestra plus some very special guests for these sensational CDs. 'Michael and Friends' completed their amazing recording sessions inside the famed 'Studio A' at Capitol Records Studios in Hollywood (where Frank Sinatra recorded the great songs) and in Mike's bi-coastal studios.



Every song on this cd is a treasure. A much needed addition to the Swingerhead catalog. Michael sings the songs in his own refreshin' swingin' style. Notable is guest vocalist Michelle Amato on "Mambo Italiano." Michelle captures the sassy, sexy style of Rosemary Clooney in her early years. Also very enjoyable; the Earthgirls join Michael and Swingerhead on "Hey Baby, I'm Home."



Currently, the band is performing in Florida with occasional jaunts to California.



Apparently the previous person meant his review to be about the "Swingerhead Christmas" album. This is not a Christmas cd."
