Paris Swing
I like it because I like the songs they play. My husband just loves this album, that should be LOVES. It is very lively versions of some old classics. I get to listen to it every time we are in the car!.
Decca recordings in France
For some reason, the Decca recordings in general are not being reissued. This collection consists of many of the Decca recordings done in France in 1935 thru 1938. Most of the pre-war recordings on the 100 or so CDs available are from the French Gramaphone recordings. The music on this CD is of the same quality as we are all used to and belong in the collection of anyone who enjoys the quintet at its best. The only problem with this CD is the poor restoration of the records used. You will have to re-equalize the high frequencies to restore the brilliance to the sound and accept some surface noise.
