5 out of 5 stars Best of Tex Beneke.......2000-06-19

Great big band swing music. Will bring back wonderful memories to folks from the 40's era. A must for students of swing music of the music of one of the outstanding band leaders of that time.

2 out of 5 stars Tex Beneke as a vocalist is short-changed on this album........1999-10-08

Not nearly enough of Tex's unique vocal stylings are the major drawback of this album. The arrangements and other vocalists are fine, but I missed Tex's smooth voice.
