This DVD is a real winner as it is taken from those old musical shorts and a 1960s television series all American I'd say. The presentation and picture quality is excellent and the sound, the most important, is very good too. The running time of just over an hour makes this a great buy. It is interesting to see the very well known big bands mixed in with the lesser known of the period. The inclusion of 1960s performances is a great contrast to the shorts of the late 1930s and 1940s. In the early years of channel 4 many of these musical shorts were shown but have not been seen since and so this is a chance to obtain them in DVD format.

As a big band fanatic, I really enjoy watching and listening to big band music and am willing to accept poor'ish quality if need be. However, for those who are not as enthusiastic about this genre of music, the sound and visual recording quality will disappoint. It is a pity that the producers did not try and digitally re-master the sound quality; at least the audio part would have been more acceptable.

Bought for a friend in his 80s with several other DVDs of this nature, very satisfied with the condition and quality of the discs.
