The Dirty Boogie: Fun, Classic, Genuinely Entertaining
In the mid and late 1990s there was a movement back toward swing and big band. The Brian Setzer Orchestra along with Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, Cherry Poppin' Daddies, and Squirrel Nut Zippers (among many others) scored unlikely hits with both new songs and remakes of old classics.

Let's Live it Up!
I haven't jumped on the big band/swing bandwagon. I don't dress like I'm straight out of the 1940's or 1950's. I can only think of one person I know who uses pomade on a regular basis and I can't think of anyone I know that wears saddle shoes for fashion purposes. I don't hang out in martini or...

Electric swing baby! Yeah!
If you were ever a fan of the Stray Cats, which I still am, or a fan of swing, then you are gonna love what Brian Setzer has to offer you. He has taken the best of the big band sound and mixed it with an electric guitar. This might sound a little weird at first but once you've heard them together... Read full review »
Swing it to me baby
There are certain times in music history that stand out to me. I can remember exactly where I was when I heard Elvis had died, I remember where I was when I heard Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana for the first time, and I remember this television commercial selling Gap khakis. The commercial uses... Read full review »
Hard to resist
This is album number three in Brian Setzer's experiment in having a lead guitar front an orchestra in swing music, and you'd have to say he's really getting the hang of it. This is the best CD the combination has produced yet, and it's not a stunner that it won a Grammy. I find myself coming back... Read full review »
Brian Setzer Orchestra
The Brian Setzer Orchestra is my absolute favorite band of all time. Their new album, The Dirty Boogey, is a very excellent CD. It has some good old fashioned ballads and some modern swing. There are also many good swing dancing songs on the album! Songs so catchy that they will make you want to go... Read full review »
Makes me want to Boogie
I had never heard of Brian Setzer or his band until my husband, who is 10 years my elder, mentioned his name. Ten years can be a large gap in music preferences. I was hesitant to purchase this album, but thought what the hay!
This is the coolest album. It is in a class of it's own. I love...

The Dirty Boogie made me want to boogie
I received this CD as a Christmas gift about two years ago. Since then, it's earned itself a permanent position at the top of my stack. Being an avid fan of the "new swing", and a big fan of "Jump Jive an' Wail", I decided to give this album a go. I'm rather glad I did, because it wasn't the least... Read full review »
Good Listening, Bad Dancing

As Reviewed by James Brundage
The number one problem with rock artists doing swing albums is that the swing albums sound more like rock when all is said and done. Put succinctly, that is my complaint with "The Dirty Boogie" by The Brian Setzer...

This Brian Setzer is so cool man! I haven't had anything move my feet this good and fast in a looong time. If his version of "Jump Jive an' Wail" doesn't get you to movin and groovin" you must be dead. I wasn't that great a fan of the Stray Cats, but I am sure a fan of Brian Setzer. If you are any...
