Flying Home
by the Kentucky Jazz Repertory Orchestra


An excerpt of the review of this CD by Mike Richardson,
from the Hepcats Swing Dance Club:

“The Kentucky Jazz Repertory Orchestra (KJRO) has produced a CD that should make Lindy Hop and Balboa swing dancers, jazz music enthusiasts and those that enjoy the authentic music of the big band swing-era jump for joy.  This CD is a truly outstanding achievement, accomplishing two difficult tasks: the songs are played true to the original version; and KJRO also adds fresh energy, depth and clarity to the recordings.  And on top of all that, the sound recording quality is superb.  This CD should certainly be a staple of swing dancers and swing dance DJ’s everywhere”.
