MAD IN SWING BIG BAND Cheap Sale Shop

At times a Cab Calloway-type zany MC, at others a crooner (who makes the language of Goethe look noble in terms of seduction), a big-band entertainer A la francaise like Henri Salvador, or even a whimsical character revisiting French chanson, Robeurt Feneck seems to come straight from the opium-dens of the Roaring Twenties. As a solo excursion for the Pink Turtle drummer (a worldfamous outfit if ever there was), the Mad in Swing orchestra has an excellent fealing for parodies and plays host to almost every style in jazz, from Swing (of course) to Cool Jazz — note the sauce added by Francois Biensan to bring even more zip to the pop of the 70s and 80s — via Cuban music or New Orleans-type gospel. Yes, Robeurt Feneck, the dandy and seducer, sure knows how to please the ladies… Setting the record straight for everyone, this is a disc where pants that don’t reach your ankles never looked so good!
