Dan Barrett - Melody In Swing

Review by Stacy Vandenput, CPM, LM

Melody In Swing, the latest album by Dan Barrett, is a delightful collection of swing-era jazz classics that will transport listeners back to the golden age of jazz. Barrett, a renowned trombonist and bandleader, has assembled a stellar group of musicians to perform these timeless tunes.

From the opening track, "Basie's Blues," it's clear that Barrett and his band are masters of their craft. The tight rhythm section provides a solid foundation for the swinging horns, and Barrett's trombone playing is impeccable. The band's energy and enthusiasm are infectious, and it's impossible not to tap your feet and nod your head along with the music.

The album features a mix of instrumental and vocal tracks, with highlights including the soulful "I Got Rhythm," the upbeat "Jumpin' at the Woodside," and the romantic ballad "I Can't Get Started." Vocalist Rebecca Kilgore shines on several tracks, including the playful "Ain't Misbehavin'" and the sultry "My One and Only Love."
