4 out of 5 stars Nostalgia.......2006-04-03

Hot Toddy was quite popular when I was in my teens, and I know it had lyrics. I have not been able to locate them anywhere. I thought perhaps your other reviewer might have access to them since his father played with Ralph Flannagan. The lyrics started out "Hod toddy sure makes a body feel awfully nice". Would love to hear about this.

4 out of 5 stars good example of a lesser-known big band.......2001-08-14

I confess I'm biased. I got this album because my Dad played on it...he was a trombonist with this band after WW2. Suffice it to say that I agree with the reviews I have read about it--Flanagan has a nice big band sound, though some tunes have a very obvious Glenn Miller influence. "On the Beat" reminds me a lot of "In the Mood"...same style, different notes. Almost like "Songs played in the style of....". Things I liked about the CD: There are a lot of tunes on it, and the first five appear to be live recordings from radio broadcasts that the band did. The radio announcer is heard introducing these cuts also. The recording sounds reasonably clean considering the original was analog recorded in the early 1950's. The few audible scratches give it that authentic "vintage" sound. The liner notes give a (very) brief overview of Flanagan and his band. Things I didn't like: Most (but not all) of the songs are relatively obscure: not what you'd buy if you wanted one CD in your collection of the most popular & well-known big band hits of the 40's and 50's. I also would have liked more info in the liner notes, especially specifics on when and where this album was originally recorded (the only copyright date I saw was on the web site and it is recent--most likely the release of this CD pressing, NOT the original cuts, which my Dad dates to the early 1950's). Overall: good choice for collectors (and proud sons) as well as students of big band music and genre...but if you want a good sampling of the definitive, popular big band tunes, get something a little more well-known.

Album Description

CLASSIC BLUES was the first blues ~ the first blues to be recorded for popular consumption. It was immensely popular in the 1920s. Grounded in folk blues combined with vaudeville stylings, it was almost exclusively performed by women. These were often fiercely independent "wild women" ~ unashamed to lay their souls bare, unafraid to give advice. Oftimes they were the comediennes, finding humor in the pain.

CLASSIC BLUES WOMEN were the first to chronicle topics like domestic abuse, alcoholism, prostitution, homosexuality, gender politics, racism and other social conditions, and, of course, sex ~ its joy and its pain. Musically, these women introduced vocal techniques that gave drama and immediacy to their performances. They would cry, growl, moan, syncopate, slide & slur, bend & break notes, improvise and rephrase to bring their stories to life.

In 2004, Adegbalola & Barnes embrace and redefine this style as NEO-CLASSIC BLUES ...

5 out of 5 stars Incredible music, incredible blues.......2005-07-03

Worthy tribute to women in the blues. Somehow Gaye captures that old time blues today. The piano artistry of Roddy Barnes is amazing. Together they have created something about the blues that is immediate yet classical. Selecting a favorite is virtually impossible. This CD should be at the top of the list.
