Official American import. A must own for swing lovers!

San Francisco's Lavay Smith and Her Red Hot Skillet Lickers have been playing Swing music for many years now. This is highly evident in 'Everybody's Talkin' - boasting a weightless mix of jump blues, boogie-woogie, sophisticated swing, and even bebop. The astute arrangements, courtesy of Charlie Siebert and David Berger, never get in the way of impetus or frame of mind and Lavay's voice is very versatile, revealing power and encumbrance, purity of heart and indecency, tenderness and immorality almost concurrently.

Lavay Smith proves that the Swing style is still very much alive and well, she is in all likelihood the most authentic female swing vocalist of our time… A great sophomore effort (their debut 'One Hour Mama' was an indie hit that sold 40 odd thousand over a 3 year period) with a joyous swing vibe throughout. This album is a must own for jazz and swing lovers.
