Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra
Paradise Blue
Cutting Edge (2009)
why you'll love it: professionally made big band dance hall instrumentals
why you'll hate it: for old people
I've lost track of how old this band is, how many albums they've made, how many players they've gone through, and how many styles of music they've played... All I know is by now, they've made enough tunes to fill a week long old fashioned Great Depression era dance marathon. Paradise Blue doesn't stray that far from the group's last two albums, with its high production and cool laid back style. It stands out a bit for being a bit more relaxed than any release in a long while, and for an increased number of instrumental tracks. Nothing new here, but they're still the best in the game.
