If you enjoy swing music, and you love rock-and-roll guitar playing then you may just cherish this record. When it comes to vintage tone and amazing licks, Brian Setzer delivers the goods. The vocals may be a little bit thin at times, but that can be overlooked, because the horn arrangements are finely crafted fun.

The Brian Setzer Orchestra isn't for everyone but, if you're into jazz-tinged, retro rockabilly music, you'll love this. Terrific musicianship and strong vocals keep the good times rolling. My one quibble with this cd (hence four stars and not five) is a couple of poorly chosen covers that don't play to the band's strengths at all. Otherwise, it's a party!!

Brian Setzer is often overlooked in guitar player polls. But he should certainly be on that list of top guitar players in the world. If you are a guitar player and don't believe it, just get a copy of this CD and play along to it. It is just fantastic playing. The CD content is like the Stray Cats on Rock Star Energy Drink and is a totally fun composition. Full of great covers. Full of the essence of Brian Setzer. And some bad-ass players, especially the guitar player.
This CD still holds up after 19 years. I bought it because it was an import.
