As one of Brian Setzer's biggest fans, I own all of his recordings. If you like his Big Band (or anyone's big band) and only want one CD, then this is the one you want. The best of the best of Setzer's big band is right here! Don't worry about the price--it's an import and it's worth it. If you want to spend a little less, then buy the Dirty Boogie CD--you'll love it! For the swingingest holiday music ever, check-out Setzer's "Dig that Crazy Christmas" CD. And, "Live in Japan" will probably be your favorite DVD of all time!

If you like his music, you will LOVE him in person. His amazing shows truly are an "Extravaganza"!

This compilation is fabulous. Unlike the american compilation here you get all the hits and four newly recorded songs. Stray Cat Strut (which you can find only here) in a orchestra version, El Diablo (a latin actually salsa song), Sexy Sexy and Scatman Jack are another masterpieces of Brian Setzer.
Compilation worth to have!

If you are a BSO enthusiast or Setzer, Stray Cats, or even just an enthusiast of great music, then this is the CD for you! If you only want the hits and don't want to do the import extras, then get the title called "Jump, Jive & Wail- The Best of BSO". This has 4 unreleased tracks that are quite stellar works. Especially the "Stray Cat Strut" piece. If ONLY they did "Sexy +17" on record!
This is the best of the best of's!
