Description:

The famous recording of "Petit Fleur," made famous by The Peanuts, has been reissued! Bob Crosby, the younger brother of Bing Crosby, was a jazz singer and bandleader. He led the band of the same name, and the name of this album, "Bobcats", was created as an outgrowth of the band, a return to the original Dixieland jazz, with a small 8-piece band that was very popular among jazz fans in the 30's. This is the world's first CD release of the Bobcats' music. This 2-in-1 release is the world's first CD release of "Petit Fleur" coupled with "Bob Crosby's Bobcats," the best of the band's works from the 30s to the 50s. In addition to jazz standards, the album contains plenty of uplifting and cheerful swing, including their signature song, M-18. Three bonus tracks added. Commentary: Asamitsu Maruyama
