5.0 out of 5 stars A Real Swingin' CD, April 5, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Blue Gardenia (Audio CD)

I waited 9 months to finally get this CD. I was unable to buy it locally from all the suppliers. I even had a friend of mine from Philadelphia (Dave Braham's home) try to get it for me, but was unsuccessful. When I saw on the Internet, I jumped for joy. When the CD arrived in only 10 days, I put it on & cranked it up! This guy can really swing. He has a super arrangement of the old Groove Holmes tune "LIVING SOUL." He blew my socks off. He wasn't as raunchy as Groove, but enough to make me very happy. There are a lot of nice standard swing tunes on this CD with 2 ballads. It was well worth waiting for all these months. You definately will enjoy this album and should add it to your collection.

With help from several guitarists (including Bob DeVos, who's worked with Charles Earland & Groove Holmes), Dave Braham delivers a promising debut. Braham gets a rich solid tone out of his organ, and favors finesse over pyrotechnics. Though the set list is heavy on standards, the arrangements are fresh, including a funky, snappy take on "Love For Sale".
