Review

Entertainment Weekly (9/24/99, p.147) - "...the historic 'From Spirtuals to Swing' concerts of 1938 and '39 were high points of U.S. culture. This outstanding 3-CD set of those performances and a related studio date unite...touchstone artists...and a dizzying collection of swing-era giants..." - Rating: A
Mojo (Publisher) (7/00, p.122) - "...The presentation of black musicians...alongside what [producer John Hammond] saw as the contemporary black folk tradition, the popular music of the day, swing....The excitement is there to be heard....If you didn't make it to the shows, this release virtually takes you there."
