MT's album "Swing" 1997 ... it is doubtful that there is a better swing
album in the entire history of music, bar none!

The absolute epitome of "swing"!

Agreed. I think I have all of their CDs. A few aren't so good but
most are great. Perhaps the difference is in my preference for the
music. Each of their CDs has a "theme". Some aren't up my alley but
"Swing", certainly is.

If you like MT, I think you'll like The Real Group, too. My boss
turned me onto them recently.
