CD Reviews

A bit heavy on the keyboards
J. Wakefield | SLC, Utah | 06/25/2007
(3 out of 5 stars)

"All tracks are played by the Power Pack "Orchestra" and it sounds like they rely on synthesized voices from the keyboard more than one expects from an orchestra. However, they have been much more creative than many small groups and they get a fuller and richer sound than one might expect.



All tracks but the "Last Waltz" are in a medley format. This is not useful if you are hosting a party and someone asks for a particular tune. It is fun of you want to practice and you don't mind the brief modulation between tunes. These are generally smooth and not too distracting. The long foxtrot medleys might be fun for dance mixers.



Here are the titles, durations, and suggested dance for each track:



In the mood / Opus 1 / Don't get around much anymore / I'm breginning to see the light / American Patrol, 7:26, Foxtrot

Touch of your lips / Spanish Harlem / My Cherie Amour / Shadow of your smile, 4:17, Rumba

Guitar boogie shuffle / Nut rocker, 2:15, Jive

Goody goody / Deep in the heart of Texas / Hoots man, 3:09, Quickstep

Lara's Theme / Moon River / Green leaves of summer, 4:29, Waltz

You made me love you / Limehouse blues / St Louis Blues / Body and soul / Stranger on the shore, 6:31, Foxtrot

Moonlight serenade / Mood indigo / Tuxedo Junction / It happened in Monterey / String of pearls, 8:12, Foxtrot

Brazil / Sucu sucu / Caravan, 4:06, Samba

Lipstick on your collar / Let there be drums, 3:21, Jive

Never on a Sunday / Spanish flea, 3:06, Cha cha

Hernando's Hideaway / New fangled tango, 2:16, Tango

Get happy / The Continental, 3:20, Quickstep
