When asked by a society matron what swing was, Fats Waller replied, "Lady, if you has to ask - you ain't got it". What he was saying was that swing cannot be defined. It is that indefinable something, that momentum and drive that some have and some don't. This CD has it in abundance. It is slammin'. It is foot stompin'. It is all that you listen to jazz for in the first place...uplifting.
