Music reviews of Swing Kids: Music From The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack
Music Review: The DEFINITIVE version to own of Sing Sing Sing
Rating: 5 Stars
I've heard "Sing Sing Sing" before, but when I heard it on episode 8 of "Glee" the sound quality was AWESOME and I HAD to have that version. After scouring the internet and iTunes and coming up with false hits, I finally found THIS version of the song which I'm certain is the same version used on Glee. This version was freshly recorded for the movie in absolutely EXCELLENT sound quality. A vast departure from the "Benny Goodman" recordings you'll find everywhere else. Plus the length of this version (5:05) is just right (I would think you'd get sick of listening to the full 8 minute version).
There are other awesome NEW recordings in this CD as well like "Shout and Feel It", "Daphne", "Life Goes to a Party" and "Bei Mir Bist du Schon". It's as though Benny Goodman's band was transported to today and freshly recorded their music using today's technology.
The CD also includes some original versions of songs (as well as the scratchiness of an old vinyl recording) like "Swingtime in the Rockies" which still sounds good. The "oldest sounding" award has to go to "It Don't Mean a Thing" which sounds like you're listening through an old Victrola.
Then of course peppered throughout the CD are the somber tones of Horner's original music for the movie.
This is a "must have" for great sounding, hi fidelity Swing Music.
