This review is from: Henry Red Allen 1929-1933 (Audio CD)

Somewhat spotty because of the inclusion of too many dreadful tunes of the day, this CD, the first on Red in the Classics series, also has two of Red's very best sides: "It should be you" and "Swing out." Just having these two recordings is worth some of the dregs that are also here.
