Fabulous, I play this in my antique shop and customers always comment. Sounds like it's right off the old victrola and everyone starts swaying to the music.
Thank you for such great service. I love the CD and will buy from you again.
Since I'm a big fan of Roda Monroe and that sort of sound a friend told me to get this cd and it was well worth it. It's a must get.
Now, the 1920s is a bit before my time. At twenty songs, this is a decent sized compilation into the popular music of the decade that roared. Some of these songs are familiar (Rhapsody in Blue) and other songs you'll be surprised to find familiar, having never known their name before. I love this music though. This, aside from the movies, was really my introduction to it.
I bought something from the forties, at the same time, and it was a big disappointment - but this made up for it. I looked them up at [.]. I recognized so many songs from movies and cartoons I've seen, and who knows where else. Everything is good, but even if you only like a few, "Rhapsody In Blue" will make you swoon and be glad you bought it. I can't wait to hear the songs from the prohibition era where they sing about their pal Al (Alcohol) and the moon shining on moonshine, etc. I was so surprised at how great it sounds and the music is really the "bees knees", as someone else mentions. I hope the Archeophone ones are as good.
I listened to the music and it did sound wonderful plus it comes with a lot of historical background. For some reason I just love this music. and, as someone commented on Amazon, they have samples. Even though the Charleston craze was way before my time, I wanted to jump up and dance. Now I am looking for more music like this. I just bought two C.D.'s by them on Amazon and will let you know. I love the play on words.
