Customer Reviews

Go Gene Go!!
This CD focuses on Gene Krupa as a bandleader rather than a soloist. Gene's Band could really swing and the vocals by Irene Daye are a bonus. If you are a fan of this era, you will love this CD.

These Cats Can Swing!!!
What first got me excited about this CD was not just the 1st chair playing of Krupa & his band, but the terrific sound clarity even with some minor hiss, most of the material is very early 1940's. I compared this with another CD by Woody Herman Greatest Hits collection. Herman had a great band, but for some reson Krupa just swings better. Solid buy for all you gone cats! DIG!!!

Swinging Before The Anita O'Day And Roy Eldridge Sides
Wonderful compilation capturing Krupa prior to the more famous stellar material he recorded with Roy Eldridge and Anita O'Day.
Coming after his stint with Benny Goodman, these sides are clear and with great sound considering the era...You won't be dissapointed with this fine collection spanning the early 1940's..
