limited. Once again Stag-O-Lee has succeeded in realizing a truly extraordinary compilation with a music-obsessed specialist. It goes without saying that this label-typical compilation is initially released in 10 format. "Hells Bells" combines swing titles from the twenties to the forties from the personal shellac stock of The Mooche. He is a musician, has been collecting Swing-78s for over 40 years and is also a dance teacher for Lindy Hop, Shag and Balboa. More swing know-how is hard to come by. The ten selected pieces by, among others, Teddy Foster And His Kings Of Swing, Benny Goodman & Jack Teagarden, the Count Basie Orchestra, the State Street Ramblers and the Artie Shaw Orchestra follow a loose red Halloween horror thread. Measured by our listening habits today, the sound quality of "Hells Bells" is of course not optimal, but the little crackle and noise doesn't diminish the pleasure, but the numbers are simply too electrifying!
