The tracks on this CD come from airsots, complete with typical announcements by radio MCs of the era, and Harry James himself also says a few words here and there. The album gets off to a storming start with trumpeter Neal Hefti's "There they go" and apart from one slow number it's swinging big band music all the way, with a roaring brass section, a swinging sax section and a four-man rhythm section that drives the band along in fine style.
Twelve of the twenty numbers come from th epen of Hefti, and they evince a definite Basie influence. The tireless Harry James is the principal soloist and plays everywhere with a lip-busting ferocity, and the bitig well-drilled trumpet section provide him with a brilliant backing, especially on "Snooty fruity" and "Rank Frank". "Forgotten", a very attractive romantic theme by Frank Davenport, is the longest track and the only slow ballad i the entire album, and features some very pretty playing from Willie Smith and Corky Corcoran, both of whom are in top form throughout the album. "Cotton tail" is played by a small unit from within the band while "Kerina" has a latin-american feel to it with some mariachi-type trumpet from Harry James, but space does not permit an appraisal of every track. It is enough to say that this is a big band album for pure enjoyment inwhich the spirited playing and contagious enthusiasm from the entire band is almost overwhelming. Exhilarating stuff.
