{"product_id":"major-glenn-miller-army-air-force-band","title":"Major Glenn Miller \u0026 Army Air Force Band - 5259","description":"Amazon.com\n\nThis album's 17 tracks were recorded between October 1943 and April 1944, when Glenn Miller's band was stationed in America and contributing to the war effort by performing at war-bond and recruitment rallies. With popular vocalists Johnny Desmond and Tony Martin and a large string section complementing a jazz-oriented big band, Miller was able to cover a broad range of material, including ambitious arrangements of such show tunes as \"Speak Low\" and \"People Will Say We're in Love.\" There are patriotic novelty tunes as well, and the swing content is high on Bill Finegan's \"Tail-End Charlie\" and Jerry Grey's \"Enlisted Men's Mess\" and \"Jeep Jockey Jump.\" The Army Air Force Band included excellent jazz musicians, with a rhythm section superior to any of Miller's civilian bands. Pianist Mel Powell is featured on his own Gershwin-esque instrumental, \"Pearls on Velvet,\" while drummer Ray McKinley animates the swing tunes. --Stuart Broomer\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B000002W9F\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: GGV.B000002W9F.LN\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Like New\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Miller, Glenn\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Audio CD\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49565692199210,"sku":"GGV.B000002W9F.LN","price":10.54,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0773\/0819\/9210\/files\/skuimage_e35ad0d8-a4b4-43d7-9e35-e451fb216952.jpg?v=1731182389","url":"https:\/\/recycle4.com\/products\/major-glenn-miller-army-air-force-band","provider":"Recycle4","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
