Album Notes & Community Reviews
Driven by an incredibly infectious, riff-based momentum, this essential instrumental perfectly defines the loose, highly energetic Kansas City swing style. The relentlessly driving rhythm section completely cemented the orchestra's legendary reputation as the ultimate dance band of the era.
