Album Review
Vavoom! is Brian Setzer's first album since "Jump Jive & Wail" from Dirty Boogie became a huge, unexpected hit in 1998 and sent the retro-guitarist into his second round of hipness and commercial success. He earned a lot of fans with Dirty Boogie because he was faithful to jump blues, swing, rockabilly, R&B, and early rock & roll, but played fast and loose, finding songs that weren't played all that often and having fun kicking them out with a big band. Here Setzer covers "Pennsylvania 6-500," "Mack the Knife," Ellington's "Caravan," and "Americano," fresh in the public consciousness thanks to Matt Damon and Jude Law's rip-roaring performance of it in The Talented Mr. Ripley, released just six months before this album, and the covers form the backbone of the album. Setzer fares quite well on his originals, largely because they sound even fresher next to the covers. Setzer is a good bandleader with a good band.
Customer Reviews
Vavoom
Don't listen to Garfield. This is a very good album that belongs in your collection. All of it.
Amazing
Garfield must be def. This album is definitely one of the very best of the Setz. Every track is awesome.
A must have
No matter what anyone says, this album is a must have, especally for those who love ballroom dance and rock. Mr. Setzer has a fanastic way with mixing the classic Big band era with the groove of Rock and Roll. This album will have you jumping out of your seat and grooving to the beat (corny, but true.) Along with the tune of the trumpets and guitars, Brian Setzer has a amazing voice, sure to sooth even the most tense person, making this already amazing album even better.
