notes

Described as having "one foot in the 30's and one foot on Mars," The DeLuxe Vaudeville Orchestra is the ultimate self-contained Vaudeville show band. A DVO concert performance includes a selection of tangos, European and Latin dance music, show tunes, music from the Swing Era, and contemporary music arranged for our unique instrumentation, which includes: accordion, washtub bass (really), violin, banjo, guitar, trumpet, euphonium, saxophone, percussion, and vocals. Vaudeville turns encompass all manner of object manipulation including balls, rings, scarves, clubs, plates, and Yo-Yo's, as well as "LaBanana's World-Renown Essential Tango Lesson" and "Semaphore at Taxpayers Expense."

  • unique, fun, and so very catchy
    author: Todd Warner

    Excellent CD. It's definately music that will take you back, yet, has a really nice "freshness" about it. They chose a great selection of music that they nicely arranged. All the musicians are top-notch to include a spectacular vocalist. I find myself playing it over and over again. Big band-ish, vaudevillian, latin, jazz, tango fun with a dash of oom-pah. Love it!

  • Fun! Fun! Fun! and not a moment too soon.

    This is one fun listen. Play it often and play it loud. I hunt down the big band sound and travel to distant places to hear the GMO types. But DVO is a pleasant diversion into the minds of it's artists and the result is a super CD full of one heck of a good time! Well done!

  • fun, musical, cheery - performers have fun, too

    I bought this because of exposure to Main Squeeze. The professional accordianist is great. This cd is good fun. I'd like another in this genre and certainly another by Rodger French
