Nice Sampler disk

M. Watkins | 02/20/2006

(4 out of 5 stars)

"What we have here is a nice little sampler of

acknowledged big band greats. With names like

Artie Shaw, Benie Goodman, Duke Ellington and

several others, one is assured of quality sounds

and mellow moods. I can't complain about the

selections, only to say that the cd clocks in at

37 minutes and could easily have held twice as

much, thus providing a more lasting and comprehensive

experience (hence only four stars, the mucis is 5).

You can snag many samplers like this off of Amazon

for just a few bucks and its certainly well worth

that.
