Disappointing
I don't know if it's the re-mastering but I found the sound quality homogenised, lacking the space, airiness, life and magic of the original recordings from these times. Usually, music from this era naturally makes my body move - this didn't. Maybe it's just that I'm beginning to appreciate the beauty of flaws over the blancmange quality of standardisation to norms of 'so-called' technical enhancement.

JAZZ CAFE CD from PAST PERFECT
A slightly misleading title. There is very little, if any actual "Jazz" as I understand the term. However there is a splendid array of 30's and 40's music ranging from Doris Day/Charlie Parker/Billie Holiday/Dinah Shore/Nat King Cole/Hoagy carmichael to Miles Davis and Louis jourdan., and many others. 25 tracks in all. Good nostalgic music/songs from the period (and, yes, there is Jazz, just not perhaps what I was esxpecting,) Great value, great sound and a bargain for lovers of good 30's/40's stars and there music.

It's a fun album!
It was given as a present but from what I've heard it was a good purchase. A cheerful selection of swing jazz to bring cheer in what looks like it could be a drab winter!
