Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars What a thrill it was for me to hear this cd, awesome...............2000-08-24

Good news, big band is still alive and kicking. Thank you! I have always been a disciple of big band music. It is good to know that there are big bands out there that want to keep the tradition alive. I would like to offer a big hand of applause for these bands.

This cd is perhaps one of the best Spitfire Band cds. Most of the songs performed on this cd are my personal fovorites. Mickey Erbe's arrangements are above average, meaning of the good to great variety. I feel like the band plays with a lot of enthusiasm. Seems like they are having fun playing.

In the future I hope this great band will release many more cds of their music. I will be the first in line to buy them.

I Would Llike To Strongly Recommend This Cd

5 out of 5 stars If you like big band music, this is the best.......1999-04-17

For the big band sound, this CD is it! The arrangements are excellent, the mix of tempo and drive is just right. A must CD for those who lived in the 40's or who like the big band sound. GREAT

4 out of 5 stars This is a good big band CD........1999-02-26

I have been a big Spitfire Band fan for about 3 years now. This CD is a good CD. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because I liked just 8 of the 12 songs listed. I feel that most people who buy it will really like it.
