"THE ONLY BIG BAND CD YOU'LL EVER NEED" Distant Drums (NEW overdub)

Distant Drums (NEW overdub)

You think you've heard the songs before but you really haven't ever heard them THIS way

It is a tour de force of some of Elvis’s best vocal performances

Mathis recorded them in the days of 1-channel monaural (which is NOT a natural sound)

Clooney backed by the Russ Morgan and Ray Coniff orchestras respectively

"THE ONLY BIG BAND CD YOU'LL EVER NEED" Distant Drums (NEW overdub)This CD offers a good sampling of what made people dance back in the era of the great big bands. We get classic tunes performed by some really big names from the big band era: Glenn Miller, Tex Beneke, Paula Kelly and The Modernaires. "Chattanooga Choo Choo" has a fine side dish of swing that works very well for this number; and Tex Beneke really sings his heart out. "Stompin' At The Savoy" stands out just as brightly; Benny Goodman & His Orchestra
