Monster Big Band Live at the Ruta Maya Coffee House.

An excellent CD. Those who love Big Band jazz, or any jazz for that matter will be impressed. The ensemble plays a very tight set with a loud, full and raunchy sound flavor. The vocal numbers are superb, being great standards, and the band surprises with some eclectic versions of some Hard Rock Classics ("War Pigs" and the Zep medley--"Get The Led Out") I love this CD.
