5 out of 5 stars What an excellent two'fer from Les and Larry Elgart!.......2007-07-04

If you remember American Bandstand, you probably remember "Bandstand Boogie" by Les and Larry Elgart as its theme song. The Elgarts presented a string of succesful big band albums in the 50s and 60s. This collection features renditions of Gershwin tunes, and the classic "Slaughter on Eighth Avenue" recorded in 1958 and 1961. Great sounds of the big bands from the Elgarts!!

5 out of 5 stars the best experience listening music.......2003-09-23

how wonderful the les and larry elgart orchestra was!. Iam from Cuba but I live in Spain but at home in Cuba from child I been listening this orchestra for years. How wonderful arrangements!.How wonderful voicings¡(Charlie Albertine for sure). If you want to hear a perfect big band ensemble and enjoy the best recording danceable experience buy this one. It will be the best Sound Ideas forever.......
