| What They Are Saying | |
| · “Memories created, beautifully arranged, appreciated by
fans old and new! Best from the Family Circus.” …….Bill Keane, nationally syndicated cartoonist |
|
| · “…this collection captures the flavor and the energy of
the original Bob Cats. It also confirms their continuing reputation,
extolled by exuberant announcers on remote radio broadcasts in the
‘30s, as ‘The Best Dixieland Band in the Land!’ As this CD’s title
suggests, the Bob Crosby Bob Cats are still ‘Going Places and Doing
Things.’ …….Floyd Levin, award winning jazz journalist |
|
| · “…the spirit and the music of one of the most unique bands
of the Swing Era, the Bob Crosby Orchestra, which featured a group
within the band called the Bob Cats, has been kept alive. …it has become
a popular attraction on the jazz festival circuit.” …….Joe Lang, President, New Jersey Jazz Society |
|
| · “The arrangements are exceptional….” …….George A. Borgman, The Mississippi Rag |
|
| · “The new and revitalized Bob Crosby Orchestra now reclaims
this (most danceable, most swinging) jazz heritage. …the band gathered
up not only the musical arrangements of its predecessor bands, but
also their spirit and vitality.” …….Jack Lebo, Big Band Report |
|
| · “I’m at a loss for words to describe how much we enjoyed
hearing the Bob Cats. What an outstanding evening. The quality of your
presentation was amplified last Friday evening when we went to another
jazz [event]. As we walked back to the car, my wife commented, “It
really makes you appreciate the Bob Cats even more, when you hear a
concert like this one.” …….Charles Hutchins, Retired CEO and Active Jazz Fan |
