It is great to see bands that appreciate the fine art of years past - and RCR does excellent versions of these songs. Each of the songs has little twists and personalizations to make it more than a simple cover, but an interpretation as well. Their original works shine through. Their personal style differs from that of Big Bad Voodoo Daddy and Cherry Poppin' Daddies in the general feeling of their music. Other tracks are closer to a power-swing, reminiscent of late 30's era big band.
Nothing here is produced to be a hit, instead it is produced to be great music.
The trumpet rips and sax solos are like nothing you will find on the pop-stars of the 90s swing revolution. Like I said earlier, they were around for quite awhile and have been the inspiration of many followers. I only hope they don't get so big a fan following as to make it impossible to dance at their shows. I really hate going to a swing band and being so crowded that I can barely move my arms.
