Philip Chaffin, with the sweet tones and beguiling manner of the best big-band vocalists, joins forces with conductor Eric Stern and producer Tommy Krasker to revive the sounds of the early '40s. Show Business exclaims, "Chaffin has a flexible and soaring instrument whose honey-colored timbre is ideally suited for this genre of music ..... It's easy to close your eyes and imagine him standing on a bandstand in front of an old-fashioned microphone while lights from a mirror ball swirl around on the dance floor. "And Talkin' Broadway concurs: "Possessing a rich tenor voice that simply melts into the songs and becomes another instrument in the 40-plus piece orchestra led by Eric Stern, Philip is so perfectly suited for the material that it makes you long for a return to the '30s and '40s ..... a treasure trove of familiar and unknown material."
