Pass The Bounce

by Brooks Prumo Orchestra

supported by

dawid One of my favorites! Favorite track: Dickie's Dream.

Arnas Razgūnas Some tracks are very very very good (Six Cats and the Prince, Esquire Bounce, The Last Jump, Dinah, Dickie’s Dream, Benny’s Bugle), some are not so great. Favorite track: Six Cats And A Prince.

Jose Tello It's obvious a dancer put together this album. All these tracks swing hard and are easily go-to's for any DJ or social dancer. Favorite track: Dickie's Dream.

Vedrana Budimir An enjoyable selection of modern arrangements of classic swing-era music, with a few lesser-known gems. Favorite track: Esquire Bounce.

djswindlestomp I've been playing this CD on repeat for DAYS! Great dance music! Favorite track: The Last Jump (A Jump To End All Jumps - Silver Shadows).

about

"The Brooks Prumo Orchestra was created for swing dancing"

For me, big band music from the Swing Era is my favorite music for swing dancing. I wanted to put out an album only of tunes that were either original compositions, original arrangements, or remakes of tracks where the original version did not have a good recording. Please take a look at the inside liner notes for info about each track. Hopefully this release is a positive contribution to the world of swing music and swing dancing!

In addition to the tracks themselves, I also wanted to hit a wide range of tempos for dancing. This album has songs at approximately the following tempos:

235, 230, 225, 210, 190, 180, 175, 160, 155, 145, 140, 135, and 125 beats per minute

Every single song on this recording holds a special place in my heart. I truly hope you enjoy it and thank you for your support!

I love this ENTIRE album!!! How to chose a favourite (Well Read Baby?!) Keenan's album is a tour de force of songs that were written now, but he's so totally internalized the style that they sound like they are from another century! The musicianship, arrangements, and the voice of Laura Windley are great. This is my fave vocal showing from Laura, too! (and she has lots of great records) Can't recommend this highly enough Alex P
