"A lot of good records come out every year, but very few of them could be called an event. This one can. An unearthed treasure trove of arrangements written by Fletcher Henderson for Benny Goodman but never previously recorded now brought to life by Bob Wilber and the swinging Tuxedo Big Band from Toulouse, France filled with first-rate soloists well, that's not the sort of thing that happens every day."
