Jim Jones has compared writing for Charlie Barnet and His Orchestra’s new album to that on ‘Swell and Super’ - but has declared the lyrics will be even more terrifying. When you buy a Charlie Barnet and His Orchestra album, you know exactly what you’re getting! After seeing Lemon Drop, I had to have a good Charlie Barnet and His Orchestra cd. If you love Charlie Barnet and His Orchestra as much as I do, then Charlie Barnet and His Orchestra Swell and Super is the CD for you!
You have to get essence of the Portrait of Edward Kennedy Ellington’s power, to truly understand this masterpiece. Be-Bop Spoken Here is a very catchy tune. This track is a great song that still never gets old. Balboa (Bop City) I just LOVE this mix! Durango - This one is what it is: a powerful, primal invitation to love. One listen to the sheer beauty of Lord Nelson was all I needed. Lonely Street is nothing but pure genius. After few listenings I started to like T-Bone for Two more and more. Raffles catches attention immediately, In Chas Me Blues Charlie Barnet and His Orchestra spins a tale you want to hear to the end. The first time I listened to Swell & Super I was struck by its exquisite sound.
