Listener Reviews & Comments This CD plays for almost 40 minutes. But acording to the previous reviewer, the tracks are only "10-second" highlights. If that was the truth, the CD would be over in 8 minutes! The TRUTH is, the tracks are indeed song highlights, but each track lasts about 45 seconds, and the tracks blend from one into the next (i.e., they fade out instead of ending abruptly). This style of music isn't my personal taste, so based on the previous review, I played the CD for a friend of mine who likes the musical genre, and I asked him what was so wrong with it. His comments regarding the CD were that for the first 3-4 tracks, he found it a little unnerving when the songs would fade out in the middle into the next song, but after he got used to that, he actually enjoyed the CD. He said that he still would have preferred to hear the entire songs (but that would have made it a 2-CD set, lasting almost 2 hours), but the highlights are also pleasant to listen to, and he gave it a 4 out of 5 star rating. He also said this would make a good CD to introduce the younger generation to big band and swing style music since the 48 tracks cover such a broad spectrum of this genre (some of the tracks are fast-paced, some slow; some tracks are danceable, some are not; etc.)
