A very nice SACD.......2004-06-09

This is a very enjoyable album. The sound quality is absolutely amazing! The first time I heard the clarinet solo on track #2, my jaw dropped at the amazing sound quality.

The soloists on the album include John Pizzareli, and the Manhattan Transfer. They are great musicians that bring a bit of variety to this album.

There is only one bad thing that I could say about this album is pretty minor. The hybrid SACD is supposed to be able to play on all CD players. I have had problems playing this on regular CD players.

Wanted: More original material.......2006-12-16

My favorite songs on this recording were written by Cyril Jordan and Chris Wilson. Terrific catchy songs; varied tempos; cool production;
an excellant listen. I would LOVE to hear an entire recording of complete originals by this songwriting team. But why did the band choose the covers that they did? "Werewolves of London", "Please Please Me"? (and more covers)! Hey, I think these are great songs, but the Flamin' Groovies add nothing new to the tunes. In fact they are inferior compared to the original artists who recorded these songs.
What could have been an amazing original recording was never attained because of the cover material. However the 6 or 7 original Jordan/Wilson songs make this CD a worthwhile listen.

Only moderately groovy.......2005-09-13

This is the third-and, I fear, the weakest-of the Groovies' three Sire albums. If SHAKE SOME ACTION is an "A" (and it is), and NOW! a "B+," JUMPIN' is a "B-."

Yeah, the Byrds covers ("It Won't Be Wrong," "5D," "Ladyfriend") are pretty cool, and "Down Down Down," "Yes I Am," and the title track are strong originals. But the Dylan and Zevon covers are, let's face it, kinda wack, and the rest is filler. Groovies freaks will have to have this, of course, but this ain't the place to discover a Groovies kinda love.

Erich Kunzel and the Cincinnati Pops Orchestra here offer a veritable tour of the swing era. Kunzel has been conducting the orchestra since its formation in 1977. The set includes many of swing's cornerstone numbers, of course including Duke Ellington's "It Don't Mean a Thing (If It Ain't Got That Swing)," which is also celebrated as the source of the genre's name. The music flourished in the '30s and '40s, popularized by composers and bandleaders such as Count Basie, Glenn Miller, and the Dorsey brothers. To help realize this project, a number of vocalists were enlisted, all of whom have current resumes rich with forays into the swing era: the Manhattan Transfer, John Pizzarelli, and Janis Siegel (who's also a member of the aforementioned vocal quartet). From soaring group vocals on such numbers as "Skyliner" to straight-ahead instrumental grooves as on Benny Goodman and Lionel Hampton's "Flying Home," this 14-song set celebrates the swing era by making it sound fresh today. --David Greenberger

Disappointing Vocals.......2003-08-21

The orchestral approach to swing used on this recording unfortunately makes this date sound anemic. The swing band sound that is in integral part of this song list is either missing or meagerly represented among the orchestral arrangements and the hollow sounding concert hall acoustics. Worst of all, the Manhattan Transfer are mixed down so far that they almost sound like they don't get their own mikes. For anyone who loves MT as much as I do, this recording is a sadly wasted opportunity. Very disappointing. They deserve so much better.

My Introduction To The Groovies.......2002-07-31

I remember reading a review of this in Hit Parader back in '79 when it was first released;it was not a totally positive review,attacking them for doing one too many covers (but that's part of what they do and they pick great stuff),however the concept of the group was enticing enough for me to want to seek them out.Although this isn't their finest record and I'm more into the Roy Loney era than the Chris White/Cyril Jordan stuff,Jumpin' In The Night is a true rock n' roll album that I have a special fondness for. The originals are great,especially the title cut,and "First Plane Home", as well as "Next One Cryin'",all Groovies at their best.The only mistake is a lame version of "Werewolves Of London" ,also pretty out of character for them to record what was then a recent song.
