Our Take

Step aside hipster indie bands, it's time to swing into the time machine and journey back to the golden age of big band music with Glen Miller's Hits Collection 1935-44.

This album is like diving headfirst into a pool of nostalgia, where the horns blare, the drums swing, and the vocals croon with a timeless charm. From the iconic "In The Mood" to the toe-tapping "Chattanooga Choo Choo," this collection is a treasure trove of toe-tapping hits that will transport you back to a simpler time.

Miller's arrangements are as tight as a drummer's snare, with each instrument playing its part to create a sound that is as rich and full-bodied as a fine wine. The energy and joy that radiate from these recordings are infectious, making it impossible to sit still while listening.

Sure, some may argue that big band music is a bit old-fashioned, but who cares when it's this good? Miller's music may be from a bygone era, but its appeal is timeless. So grab a partner, clear some space on the dance floor, and let Glen Miller and his orchestra whisk you away on a musical journey that will leave you grinning from ear to ear.
