CD Reviews

At The Paladium [DEAD]
George R. Stilwell, Jr. | Raleigh, NC USA | 10/31/2001
(2 out of 5 stars)

"Often live performances have a spontaneity that marks them above
studio recordings, but after hearing Ray Anthony's band recorded
in modern sound, this one is a dud. Great songs,
good arrangements, but the sound is so bad by comparison
it's hard to overlook.I know, I should have listened to the samples instead of going
by the review that said the sound was good. I guess good means
you can't hear the pops and crackle from the disk because
they've transcribed it through a distorted doughnut.Try "Dream Dancing II" for the very best or try "In the Miller
Mood" (not Miller II) for the second best with a little more
upbeat tempo.I wish Amazon would post the actual recording date instead
of when the CD was released. It would give one
a real clue as to what to expect from the sound."
Vintage Big Band music! Nostalgia at it's best.

"If you like Miller or Goodman or Dorsey, you'll love this CD. It's a remastered performance of a live radio broadcast back in the 50's and the engineering in supurb. The arrangements all have the Glenn Miller sound and the selection of tunes is well thought out. Back in those days Ray Anthony's band was the best one around and this recording is evidence of why. It's a terrific CD and I highly recommend it to anyone who is a big band buff. I brought back some delightful memories."
