"I saw Flattop Tom at the La Pente High School(in Southern California). Flattop is local here so he plays all over the San Gabriel Valley areas. Flattop is a high energy perfomer with a distinctive and appeling voice, the growls and is somewhat rockabilly-ish. This cd features LA's top blues and jazzmen, and is a tight swing band, that plays blues, just as well as swing. The band swings HARD, and is one of the finest swing/jump blues bands in Los Angeles. This band is not only for lindy hoppers, but they often are featured at blues festivals. This cd is one of the most energetic and fun swing cd's and it's perfect for dancing. FUN!!!"
This is a keeper

"Flattop Tom and his Jump cats put out a splendid effort here. Their tunes are fun to listen to and I think the dancers could really get into swingin' with these guys. The tunes are a little short but there's plenty of tracks to enjoy. I know many people who say they love this disc and this band. They won me over."
