CD Reviews

A Must For 30s Pop-Jazz Fans
Thomas Bumbera | Maplewood, NJ USA | 04/21/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This collection features the Brunswick "House Band" under Victor Young's direction, with all-star sidemen as noted above. Simply put, this beautifully-remastered set brings together some very hard-to-find depression recordings of popular hits of the era, and as such is a must-have for fans of 30s pop and jazz."
