Review

The HiBall Lounge Sessions, Vol. 1 is actually not a bad retro-swing sampling, mostly (but not exclusively) featuring artists performing classic material with both respect and a lively sense of fun. Present are Lee Press-On and the Nails ("Sing Sing Sing" and "Jumpin' Jive), Steve Lucky and the Rhumba Bums ("Daddy-O" and "Jumptown"), Lavay Smith and the Red Hot Skillet Lickers ("Blue Skies" and "Ooh Papa Do"), Clint Baker's New Orleans Jazz Band ("I'm Not Rough," "Them There Eyes"), the Chazz Cats ("This Joint is Jumpin'" and "Swing Brother Swing") and the Acme Swing Company ("The Acme Swing Company," "Deal Me In"). ~ Steve Huey, All Music Guide
