The big swinging 40 piece big band recordings from Ray Collins' Hot Club. Having originally had the idea to record a couple of songs in big band style, the plan became bigger and bigger - and they ended up recording with 40 musicians including strings, harp and timpany. This album is a dream come true for one of the swinginest bands in Europe.

Ray Collins' Hot-Club is without doubt one of Europe's hottest 50's jump-blues bands ever. And after experiencing them, you can say with certainty that they are one of the best in the world. As near a perfect 50's sound as you can get. It's all about swing and rhythm and blues of the highest quality, good-time music with a strong beat.

It's rare that a band of today's lineage is able to generate such an original sound and also manage to capture the spirit of the classic old legends from the 1950s such as Tiny Bradshaw, Joe Houston, Big Jay McNeely, Joe Liggins, Johnny 'Guitar' Watson, Wynonie Harris and Ike Turner & The Kings of Rhythm.
