5.0 out of 5 stars Strict tempo dance music and a great buy, December 17, 2001
By 
John R. Baker & Carol McGinn (Rockledge, FL United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ballroom Dancing (Audio CD)
This British orchestra who has been around a long time. The music is "strict tempo" for competition or just dancing. Eight quicksteps is too many for Americans who don't dance it much. It would be difficult to dance magic rhythm to these quicksteps, as they are 50 measures per minute. The Modern Disco Beat is inappropriate on a ballroom dance CD, in my opinion. The Waltzes are a good tempo, not too fast. The Jive is very British. Get a Glenn Miller CD for American swing. The Latins are also good.

5.0 out of 5 stars Top value for good dance music, May 16, 2003
This review is from: Ballroom Dancing (Audio CD)
28 great tunes played by THE orchestra that developed and popularized strict tempo dance music. All of the great dance orchestras learned from listening to Victor Silvester, and this album will help you appreciate their wisdom. It is not historic in the sense of "You're Dancing on my Heart." Rather, it continues his genius in a worthy manner. This recording is amazingly clean for a digitally remastered album. Every track is danceable except maybe the "modern disco" track (#27).
