Description:
Swing Is The Things by The Mills Brothers, released 9 June 2005.
This version of Swing Is The Things comes as a 1xCD. -
The title on the spine is simply "The Mills Brothers Vol. 2". On the back cover it's "The Mills Brothers Vol. 2 Swing Is The Thing". On the front cover the title is "Swing Is The Thing". I've decided to go for the title on the back cover, considering that Naxos Nostalgia had already released a collection of earlier Mills Brothers recordings in 2001. It makes sense that Swing Is The Thing would then be volume 2.
"Swing Is The Thing" is a captivating CD by the legendary vocal group The Mills Brothers, released under the renowned Naxos Jazz label. This collection showcases the timeless swing and jazz harmonies that made The Mills Brothers famous worldwide. With their smooth vocals and innovative arrangements, they have influenced generations of musicians and delighted audiences since the 1930s. Highlights on this album include classic tracks that exemplify their unique blend of close harmony singing and jazz instrumentation. Naxos Jazz, known for its commitment to high-quality recordings and making great music accessible to all, brings this essential piece of jazz history to new listeners. The Mills Brothers are celebrated for hits like "Paper Doll," "Glow Worm," and "Tiger Rag," earning them Grammy Awards and a place in the Vocal Group Hall of Fame.
