5.0 out of 5 stars A High Quality Addition to your Big Band Music Collection, April 22, 1999
By A Customer
This recording will satisfy collectors of Glenn Miller who want to fill out their libraries with some modern recordings. The performances of the original band members as well as the active (as of 1972) members of the Glenn Miller Orchestra is flawless.

The quality of the recording is very good with barely any detectable hiss. There is no "ADD" or "DDD" indication on the CD, cover, or liner notes... However, if this recording isn't an all digital recording (DDD), it is one of the best analog recordings (ADD) I have in my collection of big band music.

This is probably as good as it gets if you want the original performers and a high quality recording. The only thing missing is the master trombonist himself.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Glenn Miller Orchestra Never Sounded Better, September 21, 2002
This 1972 edition of the Glenn Miller orchestra under the direction of Buddy DeFranco captures the style of the original GMO. The excellent stereo recording quality just adds to the charm. Highly recommended. While your at it, pick up volume 2, also.

1.0 out of 5 stars Horible Drek, October 10, 2003
By 
William J. Roberts "K8DXX" (Sterling Heights, Michigan United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Yes, this is a 1972 stereo recording which is technically better than the originals. However when I think of other recordings of the era, this could and should have been better, Percussion is muffled. Bass isn't there. Vocals are mediocre. What really hurts is the strange almost stacatto attack of notes that Glenn Miller would have given a warm rich treatment. 'Elmer's Tune' sounds like a children's game of hop scotch. I've tried getting used to this interpretation of Glenn's music and find it difficult. I find 'In The Digital Mood' on GRP much more acceptable although also lacking in warmth and depth. An example of good Glenn Miller material is 'In The Christmas Mood.' Anyone else feel like I do on this? Anybody want to buy my Volumes 1 and 2? Very disappointed!
