HELLS BELLS
: Swing Candies for Doomsday
For this compilation it would have been way too easy concentrating on titles with 'Ghost', 'Spook' or 'Devil' simply in the titles of often very boring and only fast or unbelievable lame tracks, so they went ahead doing something more subtle and special, spanning the decades from the 1920s through the 1940s in a very wild manner. At last, they kicked the term 'Halloween' as it should be played the whole year through and every track is solid sending stuff for sophisticated Lindy Hop, Shag or Balboa-dancing.
