One of my dads all time favorites.Just can't beat that BIG band sound, and your rendition of this song along with the guys was most enjoyable. Thank you.

[trogdordburninator]

Thank you very much! Glad you enjoyed it!

Just my opinion but she's got all that band behind her and she's fronting it with very little voice. Loved the band but would've expected a vocalist of equal quality. She's good but not on the same level as this band.

I don't usually listen to big band music, but I appreciate a good tune when I hear it, like right now.
