Comments

Inside The Groove

Georgie Auld's second leader album on EmArcy label, a nice danceable swingy big-band sound.

Personal Impression (and brief notes)

Rather corny swing big band in our recent ears, but at the same time this album (probably) presents the cream of the West-Coast studio musicians at the time.

Strictly Personal Rating (to what extent I could enjoy this album)

8 out of 10
