a beautiful, swingin’ CD
By R. Dean
This has got to be one of the best huge band CD’s I’ve ever heard. The arrangements are top-notch. “Imagination” has Guido Basso soloing on an perfectly beauteous rendition of this tune. 4 B.C. (Benny Carter)opens the CD in a medium tempo groover and then “Imagination” is the second cut. Later is “nightfall” and “My Bells”. These are gorgeous ballads with flutes in the mix. This CD is so nice. I own in regards to 5 cd’s of Rob Mcconnell’s. They’re all good but this one is unbelievably satisfying. As all good music, it gets better with repeated listenings. If you like a huge orchestra do yourself a favor and get this.

Was going to kick-back – – -
By Geoff Brandt
- – and relax on a gorgeous Saturday afternoon……..

But that’s very difficult to do with Rob McConnell and his Canadian band SWINGING on the stereo….

Was unfamiliar with them until I read a heap of item (Mel Torme’ wrote it) lauding this big band – – – – and, YES —– right!

Finally in a mood to get away from little groups and Bossa Nova for a day or three — found the right vehicle. Tight charts, fine personnel = Excellent band!
