3 out of 5 stars Not In the Groove   July 7, 2003

Many of Ray Anthony's big band recordings, including this CD, don't really hit the groove. This cd contains a number of arrangements that were part of the Count Basie book.brIt's reasonably enjoyable to listen to and there is a fine array of studio musicians doing this album but emotionally it didn't do a thing for me. If you like big band that's not offensive, this would be a good one.


5 out of 5 stars Big Band at its Best!   January 12, 2001

Terrific arrangements with tons of innovation. Some of the best ensemble work you'll hear anywhere. That is the highlight of the CD for my money. Anthony's horn is still throaty and sometimes downright dirty. 2 vocals by Dennis Rowland are more than adquate. A very listenable..and danceable if you're inclined...collection. If you're a big band fan, you'll love this CD.


2 out of 5 stars THIS CD IS NOT THE BIG BAND ALBUM YOU THINK.   February 27, 1999

I AM A FAN OF RAY ANTHONY SO I HAD HIGH HOPES FOR THIS CD. AS IT TURNS OUT THIS IS NOT A BIG BAND ALBUM BUT A JAZZ ALBUM. THE SONGS LISTED COULD HAVE BEEN GREAT BIG BAND SONGS BUT NOT AS THEY APPEAR HERE.
