Werner Müller makes his second appearance in Vocalion’s February 2008 releases, with two albums that prove that this orchestral maestro could also swing with the best of ’em! The first album compiled on this release is A Salute to the Kings of Swing, in which Müller and his big band inject new life into numbers such as Duke Ellington’s C-Jam Blues and Erskine Hawkins’s Tuxedo Junction. More of the same is on offer in Original Glenn Miller Sound, which focuses on the music of the swing era icon, with Müller and his men making classic numbers such as Pennsylvania 6-5000, A String of Pearls, Moonlight Serenade, Little Brown Jug and many others swing like the clappers. Essential listening for all who appreciate the finest in big band sounds.
