Louis Jordan - At The Swing Cat's Ball (1999)
Jazz, Blues, Swing | MP3 320 kbps CBR | 53 min | 123 MB
Label: Geffen Records | Rel: 1999

Released as an attempt to cash in on the swing revival that swept through America in the late '90s, MCA's At the Swing Cat's Ball contains 12 songs that spotlight Louis Jordan's hardest-swinging material. Since Jordan towered above most jump blues practitioners in the '40s, it's easy to enjoy the compilation, even if you question the reasons behind its assembly. Since it concentrates on swinging material, it isn't a strict hits compilation (even though there are hits here), but that probably won't bother Generation Y swingers, whom this compilation is clearly targeted at.
