Long before neo-swing boom, which looks like to be quite in fashion in recent years, tenor sax Dave Clark and ‘shouter’ singer and guitar player Floyd McDaniel were successfully performing swing together This cd gathers fifteen excellent rolling songs deeply connected with forties and fifties swing and Kansas City sound tradition A delightful cd that carries us to the beautiful but unfortunetely disappeared old nightclubs and ballrooms so populars on those nice postwar years All musicians give a very inspired joyful performing and horn and piano arrangements follow the patterns of real jump and jive tradition Although thi9s recording was done in the middle of the nineties, sound, feeling and backing atmosphere make us travel to the golden age of swing that unfortunately will not come back again
