"There's another killer new CD release afoot this week in a wholly different vein of music. Royal Garden Swing Orchestra is releasing Best Foot Forward, a new 15-track collection of mostly instrumental jazz swing performed by the area's best jazz musicians."

"This is an orchestra that harkens back to a bygone era, when musicians wore tuxedos and had an air of elegance about them."
