. Step Up to the Plate
by: Dem Brooklyn Bums
Release Date May 01, 2000
A good swing album from a six piece band with a double bass playing singer and 3-piece brass section. The whole album has a real gangster feel to it, with tracks like 'wifebeata boogie' & 'slap ya' round' . Standout track 'one good reason' is sublime, textbook stuff. Not a classic as it does tail off a bit towards the end but is still well worth a listen. Fans of Cherry Poppin' Daddies won't be disappointed. Check them out live if you get the chance, if only to see the baseball bat solo from singer Rob Cittadino.
