The Brian Setzer Orchestra version of In The Mood isn't half as good as the original.
I bought this album recently. It's been a huge source of inspiration for my tenor playing.
This one is a classic. I love the drum solo.
Big Phat Band is incredible. I could listen to their stuff all day. Gordon Goodwin's solo is brilliant, although sounds better live.
I'm currently in one of my school's Big Bands, which is pretty cool. I'm in the lower level band, but I'm almost guaranteed a place in the better one next year because I'll be one of 2 the senior years tenor players in the school and the band needs 2 tenors.
