Swing It!

All Music Guide Review

Swing It! features 25 songs by swing era vocalist and bandleader Louis Prima recorded between 1933 and 1950. This compilation isn't a complete summary of his career, but it does include such early hits as "Robin Hood," "Sunday Kind of Love" and "Oh Marie." Those looking for Prima's hits from the '50s featuring Keely Smith and saxophonist Sam Butera will be better served by The Wildest! or Capitol Collectors Series. ~ Al Campbell, All Music Guide
