Query: Not as good as the first

This CD is swingin, but it doesn't match up to the first one. There are too many slow, sappy songs, and they really slow the album down. The songs just aren't up to the quality of a Mr. Pinstripe Suit, Jumpin' Jack or Go Daddy-O. Don't get me wrong, this CD swings. The horn solos are great, Karl's tenor is amazing, and there's more keyboard and guitar solos, but it appears as if BBVD has mellowed out somewhat, as indicated by the songs Who's That Creepin'?, When It Comes To Love, Some Things, Still In Love With You, and Sleep Tight. The softer half of the CD is good, but it's just not BBVD's forte. The lack of more jump-swing hurts. The best tracks are Big Time Operator, What's Next?, and I'm Not Sleepin'. The first CD had the perfect mix of hot jazz, fast swing, and mellow jive. This one tends to drag, but it's still worth getting for any swing fan
