Sounds like it's right off the old victrola and everyone starts swaying to the music. Fabulous, I play this in my antique shop and customers always comment.
I love the CD and will buy from you again. Thank you for such great service.
It's a must get. Since I'm a big fan of Roda Monroe and that sort of sound a friend told me to get this cd and it was well worth it.
I love this music though. Now, the 1920s is a bit before my time. This, aside from the movies, was really my introduction to it. At twenty songs, this is a decent sized compilation into the popular music of the decade that roared. Some of these songs are familiar (Rhapsody in Blue) and other songs you'll be surprised to find familiar, having never known their name before.
I recognized so many songs from movies and cartoons I've seen, and who knows where else. Now I am looking for more music like this. I bought something from the forties, at the same time, and it was a big disappointment - but this made up for it. Even though the Charleston craze was way before my time, I wanted to jump up and dance.
I just bought two C.D.'s by them on Amazon and will let you know. I hope the Archeophone ones are as good. and, as someone commented on Amazon, they have samples. I can't wait to hear the songs from the prohibition era where they sing about their pal Al (Alcohol) and the moon shining on moonshine, etc. I listened to the music and it did sound wonderful plus it comes with a lot of historical background. For some reason I just love this music.
I looked them up at [.]. I love the play on words. I was so surprised at how great it sounds and the music is really the "bees knees", as someone else mentions. Everything is good, but even if you only like a few, "Rhapsody In Blue" will make you swoon and be glad you bought it.
