5.0 out of 5 stars Modern Swing Must Have - Chicago Suburb fan, February 23, 2002

This review is from: Meet Me in Uptown (Audio CD)

For a first effort this is a great album. Their is pleny of fun on the album. They pull of all aspects of music, jazz, soul, early R&B. The rhythm section is strong and just a makes you wanna dance. Ross Bon vocals are great, adds just the right touch to make every song his own. The horn section is also not bad. They put in a good effort. "Rag Mopp" is a most listen to, if you don't like that song then there is something wrong with you. It must be pointed out that the first tack "Jumpin' At The Green Mill" hooks you right and sets you up for what is to come. "Buzz Buzz Buzz" is just a classic and when if first bought is album in 96 is listened to that track over and over again for just how well the band plays together.

If you a fan of jazz and like people like Ella, or Billy, or dare I even type it Bennett then this is the album for you. There is enough fun going on here to make anyone feel good.

i heard this cd years ago, some friends introduced it to me. then i got to see them live and the show was awesome. i just bought this cd b/c i have bought it 2 other times, but people keep borrowing it and never giving it back--i guess that says something good about the music on the cd. great cd, try it out, you'll love it.

5.0 out of 5 stars This band is great, even my daughter loved it "), July 12, 1999

These guys are awsome. My husband and I were at the Munster Festival and we just absolutely loved these guys so we went out and bought this cd and I would like to say how absolutely great it is. My daughter loves it AND so do her friends. This does not happen everyday. We also bought there other cd's so we have them all. So if you don't know if you should buy this cd then just re-read this and then go out and buy it.
