this cd surpasses many others when it comes to the quality of music presented as well as the quality of the tone of the music. several cd's may state that they have been 'remastered" but this one needs no touching up. the selection of songs is fantastic. if you have ever been to a club to do some swing dancing, these are songs that you will immediately recognize. this cd is appropriate for the seasoned dancer or novice who just loves a great tune by a fantastic orchestra.

This is by far one of the best Boston Pops cds that i have ever heard. Just about all the songs were arranged to excellance.In my estimation, the BPO never sounded better. I don't think i could have done any better job, my self with the song selection. Anyone who loves the sound of swing should buy this cd. It will make you feel like dancing.

This is just what I've been looking for. Swing is coming back in a big way and every piece on this CD is one of the greatest. If you like upbeat, feel-good music, then you'll love this one!

This is an excellent cd. It has the most famous of all swing tunes.

This CD is a nice collection of swing - simply great listing. Sound quality is good not tinny but solid.

another feast for the ears- the warm wash of symphony hall sound wraps all around me like a big ol' down quilt, as i listen to this CD. ear candy to the max. big band melodies with ethereal strings and sparkling hall acoustics in just the way i wish they could have been recorded way back when. serene and silky and nice.

Great to have these to give as gifts to our swingers who don't age!

Listening to this great album clearly demonstrates that John Williams continued Arthur Fiedler's great work in the Boston Pops. "Sleepy Lagoon" is my favorite in the gorgeous repertoire of this great compilation. I highly recommend it, especially for lovers of the big band era.

Je suis un certain "fan" des Boston pops,sachant que sur Amazon, je pouvais me procurer ce CD qui est discontinué dans les magasins de musique,je ne pouvais que mettre la main sur ce chef-d'oeuvre musical, qui nous donne la frénésie et l'envie de danser sur ces vieux succes, repris par les "POPS".Un incontournable selon moi.John Williams est un des meilleurs conducteur des Boston Pops et Swing Swing Swing, le démontre tres bien.

Boston Pops logra hacer toda la musica genial, nos acerca a distintos esquemas y logra llamar nuestra atencion.
John Williams por su parte aficionado y experto en swing, jazz y otras yendencias, ademas de creador y genial director hace que todo esto sea eficazmente alucinante y envolvente. Las obras incluidas suenan genial y son grandiosas. La orquesta logra un sonido sorprendente, percucion, saxo, trompetas y todos los vientos, sonidos llamativos, que rememoran lo mejor de Glenn Miller.
Williams ademas de dirigir a los Boston Pops de manera soberbia compuso una breve obra, casi un meddley, que es sutilmente un homenaje.
Disfruten de este CD genial, entretenido y que los hara bailar o recordar.
