This is a disappointing collection. Scatman Crothers only performs 4 songs on this whole disc, and they are recent numbers, not pieces from his Cotton Club heyday.

Likewise the Cab Calloway material. This is Cab in the 1970's, imitating Sammy Davis Jr., doing show tunes and Vegas Lounge numbers, an entirely forgettable performance. It's not terrible, but the title is terribly misleading-- neither artist ever sounded like *this* at the Cotton Club.
What was Laserlight thinking?

Oh.. they were thinking they could get away with it... avoid this release.

I had heard of Cab Calloway infrequently in my life and had always wondered about his music. I purchased the cd "Minnie The Moocher" and was so pleasantly surprised by just how talented he was, what a lovely voice. This cd is just so energetic and a whole lot of fun to listen to. It's a great for introducing one to the music of Cab Calloway and I am thoroughly enjoying it. I am now a fan and plan to purchase more of his cds.

A small collection of fairly late Cab Calloway.

This collection is only so-so. The first six selections are standard Cab Calloway tunes like Minnie the Moocher and Jumpin' Jive: good stuff, but easy to find. The last four are very cheesy late recordings. The liner notes are essentially non-existent, just a list of titles and playing times. Jungle King is listed erroneously as Jungle Swing.

JERSEY BOUNCE is a St. Clair brand budget label CD that has everything you've come to expect from such lower priced collections: modest playing length, no liner notes or song details, fair-to-middlin' sound quality and a mix of original and latter-day stereo sides. The material itself is THE redeeming quality here-- for fans of this genre, it's a certainty that you won't be disappointed with the music on this album.
