With their debut album Mugzy's Move, the Royal Crown Revue bring back the sound of pre-rock jump blues, playing a set of Louis Jordan-inspired originals and ocovers. Although the band is energetic and proficient, their cutesey originals and campy album art give their music an aura of being some sort of kitschy joke. Still, the band is talented enough to make those kinds of questions relatively easy to ignore. Mugzy's Move, despite it's flaws, is an engaging set of nostalgic fun. ~ Thom Owens  http://www.allmusic.com/album/mugzys-move-mw0000187938
