Swing Kids [Original Soundtrack]

Swing Kids [Original Soundtrack] (1995) more music like this

by Original Soundtrack

At its best, Swing Kids fills the listener with the relentless passion, sensuality, and joy that is swing music. Not tapping your feet or dancing to the material presented is nearly impossible. Unfortunately, composer James Horner also fills the album with moody orchestral music that takes away some of the momentum. Still, the best cuts are so ...

Big Band Greatest Hits

Big Band Greatest Hits (1996) more music like this

by Various Artists

Big Band Greatest Hits is an entertaining collection of swing classics, including Benny Goodman's "Sing, Sing, Sing," Glenn Miller's "Chattanooga Choo Choo," Tommy Dorsey's "I'll Never Smile Again," Duke Ellington's "Take the 'A' Train," and Artie Shaw's "Stardust." While it is assembled too haphazardly to appeal to the jazz purists, it is an ...

Live at Carnegie Hall (1938)

Live at Carnegie Hall (1938) (1938) more music like this

by Benny Goodman

Although it has been superceded by the remastered, more extensively researched, and longer running Live at Carnegie Hall: 1938 Complete, this two-CD set issued in 1987 is still very worthwhile to the casual listener, and it has virtues that the reissue lacks. Mastered from a triple-LP set that had been cleaned up and edited at the time of release ...

Family Circle: Get Fit to Jazz

Family Circle: Get Fit to Jazz (1996) more music like this

by Various Artists

Intended to be played during exercise and work-out sessions, Family Circle: Get Fit to Jazz is a budget-line collection of classic big-band swing and jump blues, highlighted by Glenn Miller's "In the Mood," and Fats Waller's "The Joint Is Jumpin'," and Duke Ellington's "Take the 'A' Train." Of course, any collection like this will infuriate jazz ...

by Various Artists

This collection does a fair job of introducing the best-known jazz songs of the 20th century, including Louis Armstrong's "Mack the Knife," Dave Brubeck's "Take Five," Count Basie's "One O'Clock Jump" and Duke Ellington's "Satin Doll." Keith Farley, All Music Guide

RCA Victor Beginner's Guide to Jazz: Greatest Hits (1996) more music like this

by Various Artists

This CD is a sampler of a sampler series. RCA Victor's introduction to jazz program (which exclusively focuses on its own artists, mostly from the swing era) is erratic at best with random programming and a lack of discographical data (such as who are the sidemen). This particular CD draws its dozen selections from eight "greatest hits" ...

Little Jazz & The Jimmy Ryan All-Stars (1975) more music like this

by Roy Eldridge

During the 1970s, Roy Eldridge had a regular gig at Jimmy Ryan's in New York playing music that fell between swing and Dixieland. For this Pablo LP, he sought to play a program with his regular group (Joe Muranyi on clarinet and soprano, trombonist Bobby Pratt, pianist Dick Katz, bassist Major Holley and drummer Eddie Locke) that, although ...

Let's Dance more music like this

by Steve Allen

Steve Allen leads a big band in this tribute to the swing era, though this Coral LP is a bit of a disappointment. The 11 standards all sound as if they are borrowed charts written for Benny Goodman by Edgar Sampson, Fletcher Henderson, and others, which of course, most of them seem to be, with the exception of a few updated versions. So anyone who ...

In the Mood with Benny Goodman (2002) more music like this

by Benny Goodman

What's immediately apparent about this release is that it doesn't include the famous song referred to in its title. While that's sneaky, the collection does include many other hits of the Swing Era, all performed with Benny Goodman's signature jaunt. "Goody-Goody" (featuring the firecracker vocals of Helen Ward), "Swingtime in the Rockies," and ...

The Let's Swing installment in Rhino's Instant Party series primarily concentrates on classic big band -- featuring tracks by Duke Ellington, Benny Goodman, Glenn Miller, and Tommy Dorsey -- taking a few detours for songs by classic pop vocalists like Mel Torme, Nat "King" Cole, and Lena Horne, plus selections by Billie Holiday and Dinah ...
