The Tommy Dorsey volume in Sony`s Masterworks Jazz series is a solid, decent-sounding, budget-priced introduction to this band`s hits and best-known numbers during a peak period. Dorsey`s band was a dance unit to be sure, and everything here, from its midtempo ballads such as "I`m Gettin` Sentimental Over You," to its slower, bluesy numbers like "After You`ve Gone," to the ubiquitous "Boogie Woogie," reflects this. For those looking for an introduction to one of swing`s premier units, this little set will do you right. ~ Thom Jurek
