Home  Sway, CD from David Last

This is the 21st release from David, and completes ten years of recordings with Maestro. Twentytwo tracks covering the most popular rhythms including mambo but not saunter. There are two "New Vogue" waltzes at 51 mpm which could be used for Old Time (Classical). The rumbas are at 26 mpm and the jives are slow, at 35 mpm.

Mark Helmore provides drums and percussion, more repetitive than many automated drum machines, and mixed in at quite a high level. David's keyboards by comparison often sound rather thin and distant. Click the links for RealAudio clips.
