bostic rocks jazz-swing lp

The golden age of swing held forth dluring the late 1930's and early 4O's. The big bands and the swinging instrumentals made famous such orchestras as Charlie Barnet, Benny Goodman, Woody Herman, Glen Gran, Jan Savitt Glenn Miller, Artie Shaw to name only a few. In choosing material for this album, it seemed only natural that the Bostic horn should seek out these songs of the swing age All of these instrumentals were big hits in their day. Many have held on and become standards, but others have been left to the memories of those who com- prised the thousands of avid followers of the "big band" era. The incomparable Earl Bostic and his alto sax breathe fresh life into these great instrumentals and give them the sound that is so distinctively his. A great artist coupled with great material can only result in a great record for your listening and dancing pleasure.
