Our Take

Freddie Slack, the pint-sized pianist with a big personality, has graced us with a delightful romp through his singles collection from the swingin' 40s.

"Mr. Five By Five" showcases Slack's undeniable talent for creating infectious, toe-tapping tunes that will have you jiving in no time. From the smooth crooning of "Wondering Where" to the upbeat boogie-woogie of "Cow Cow Boogie," Slack's versatility shines through in every track.

His playful piano stylings are complemented perfectly by the silky-smooth vocals of his various collaborators, including the sultry Ella Mae Morse and the charming Margaret Whiting. Each song is like a mini time capsule, transporting you back to a simpler, swingier era where music was king.

Slack's energetic performances and catchy melodies make this collection a must-have for any fan of vintage jazz and swing. So grab a cocktail, put on your dancing shoes, and get ready to have a swingin' good time with the one and only Freddie Slack. Trust us, you won't be able to resist the urge to hit the dance floor.
