Anyone who like the vintage halloween songs from the 30's and 40's will be happy to know the new Moon-Rays CD coming out in May "Swingin at the Seance'" is just that. There were two previous collections out there called Haunted House and Halloween Stomp (both out of print) that featured original versions of these old tunes by Louis Armstrong, Bing Crosby, Kay Starr, ect. This is the best halloween CD to come out in a long time!

I wasn't expecting to be thrilled because I hold my neoswing to a pretty darn high standard... and Halloween or noir swing even higher... and anyone doing a Glenn Miller cover better be damn good... and what I've heard is really good. I hadn't heard of The Moon-Rays before, so I thank you for this heads up.
Added them to my MySpace, they're on it at MySpace.com - the Moon-Rays - crystal lake, US - Swing / Lounge / Surf - www.myspace.com/moonrays

I seriously thought at first glance that the woman was Janet Jackson, when I first saw a smaller image of it.
