It Could Happen

Pianist Dave Hanson arranged all the tunes for this big-band smash-er-oo, & it totally will rock your jazz day! Tunes like the opener, "Hocus Pocus", will have you pining for those great ol' ballroom days (Maidenform or not)! The totally down & funky "B In C" merits numerous replays, & keeps the spirit of big band alive in today's musical miasma. Too many players to itemize here, but take my word for it, the energy levels this band are able to escalate to will have you yearning for more. My personal favorite of the eleven tunes offered up for your aural enjoyment is "Black Lace Freudian Slip"... wonderful vocal work from Rene Marie, and a "back-alley creeper" style that takes me all the way back to the '40's (when I was born). Totally tasty jazz that gets a MOST HIGHLY RECOMMENDED from my ol' ears, with an "EQ" (energy quotient) rating of 4.98.
