Thoroughly enjoyed the music of this southern swing group. Even though it is made up mostly with original music, the sound is genuine. Songs to really listen to are the title tune, Rat Face Rudy, G Man, and Kopesetic. I found the style and humor quite refreshing while being performed by talented musicians. This cd is a must for true lovers of swing.

I loved the cd,the cover was great, every song was great, but i have to admit I do have my favorites : ) GMAN is my favorite, then Swing Til Ya Drop and Kopesetic, and Miss Manhattan, love that one you did, It's Not Love! The jazz and blues are great! That guy in the yellow suit is not to bad either!

WOW.. this is great.. I loved it

This is a cool cd! A guy that saw them play in Atlanta turned me on to it. I've got other contemporary swing cds, and this one really kicks their behinds. The difference to me is the songwriting. It's just not the "same old thing" that all the swing bands play that really should be labeled rockabilly. The title track is as good or better than anything I've personally heard on the radio, and if you didn't know better, you'd swear Elvis(the cool one) was singing Be-Bop-A-Lula. I know, enough smoke already! If you like swing or would like to give it a chance, I would tell you to check this out.

Although this CD has been out a while, I just purchased it. WoW!
I was blown away. Johnny Zoot really rocks. I especially liked the note he sang on Cobwebs. The lyrics and feel makes me sad but that is a testament to the strong emotions which Jonathan Zoot summons from the bottom of his soul.
This band would have been one of the tops in the 40's and should be today with the fine musicianship and bass/vocal prowess of J. Zoot.
I have a small dentist practice in my town and have made my patients listen to this when they are tied in their chairs and they almost never complain.
Thanks Zoot people.

Excellent Musicianship! Music type is 40s' -90's. They can swing! Never have I heard two guitars, saxophonist, trumpeter, trombonist, pianist, and drummer along with a singer sound so good together! I would highly recommmend their CD to anyone from the 40's and today! So, If you want to Swing Til' You Drop then by all means purchase this CD! I have and I've thoroughly enjoyed it and can not wait until they put another one out!!!!! "THANKS" Zoot's & The Swingin' Suits / Miss Manhattan!

I enjoyed the diverse "moods" of this CD! First and foremost was it's swing beat....then I liked the blues style. I would have to say my favorite was "Kopasetic" followed closely by "Rat Face Rudy" and "G Man". I enjoyed the humor that was cleverly added to the lyrics in the latter two. Some of these songs will certainly add some "zing" and "pazazz" to your day.
