Louise Messenger with the London Dance Orchestra London, UK
The Monday Recording Club began as we emerged, blinking from lockdown one.

This Year's Kisses
by Brooks Prumo Orchestra
supported by 10 fans who also own “Secret Love”
The laid-back groove of the Brooks Prumo Orchestra hits the sweet spot. This is fine swing without any try-hard hype. The studio mix is balanced, and it hops and slides like music should (unlike some other contemporary jazz). "Out of Nowhere" is outstanding: inspired arrangement, knockout playing, genuine emotion. The vocal numbers get better with every listen, and "Blue Lester" has about it a certain sunburn-on-your-skin mint julep nighttime ease.
