 Rating:  - Bench MarkZoot Suit Riot: The Swingin' Hits of the Cherry Poppin' Daddies They set the bench mark back in the day when this came out, this is a great CD, and if you love swing, buy it. Their new stuff that they are doing on their tours this spring [2008] just don't cut it, it aint swing baby, its SKA...YUCK! Hope this review helps others... Rating:  - This was obsceneI didn't pay attention to the reviews, sigh. I tossed the cd. The music may be good, but the concept is creepy. I glad for my naivete, this isn't the sophistication that I want to embrace. Rating: - Hooray for dirty SwingSwing was well before my time, but damnit if it wasn't good music.

Shows how out of the loop I am, I guess. Some people would probably ... Read More Rating: - Zoot Suit RiotI postively love this cd. It so entertaining to listen to and if you are into swing dancing this is the music for you. The quality is like having Cherry Poppin Daddies right there with you performing it, it's that good. Zoot Suit Riot is a very up beat and fun cd for everyone to enjoy . |
