This review is from: Great Swing Classics in Hi-Fi (Audio CD)

The best compilation of fifties swing i've heard till now. Benny Goodman's remake of Count's Jumping At The Woodside is a great opener, A Good Man is Hard to Find from Les Brown is fabulous, I'm Begining To See The Light and Crazy Rhythm from Harry James are wonderful,...

Fifties rerecordings of thirties and forties swing that really swings!
