Our Take

Step right up, ladies and gentlemen, to witness the larger-than-life musical spectacle that is JIMMY DORSEY's Giants Of The Big Band Era. This album is a time machine to the swinging 1940s, where the music was as smooth as a silk tie and the dance floors were hotter than a summer day in Ibiza.

From the moment you press play, you are transported to a world where horns blare, drums thunder, and the saxophones wail like a lover scorned. The arrangements are tight, the rhythms infectious, and the solos are so hot they could melt the polar ice caps.

DORSEY's band is a well-oiled machine, churning out toe-tapping hits like "Contrasts" and "Green Eyes" with the precision of a Swiss watch. The musicianship on display here is nothing short of virtuosic, with each player getting their moment to shine like a diamond in the rough.

But what really sets Giants Of The Big Band Era apart is its sense of fun and joy. This album is a celebration of life, love, and the simple pleasure of a good melody. So grab your dancing shoes, pour yourself a stiff drink, and let JIMMY DORSEY and his band whisk you away to a time when music was king and the night was young. Cheers to the giants of the big band era!
