Big Bad Voodoo Daddy
Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Grunge angst got old. We wanted to have fun. Big Bad Voodoo Daddy was there, ready with serviceable, pumped-up swing. Their music is straight, uptempo, dance floor jazz. There's nothing particularly original going on, but the sleazy horns and snappy arrangements get the job done. There's nothing campy or tongue-in-cheek either; the music just barrels ahead...like good rock & roll. --Steve Tignor --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

i love big bad voodoo daddy!.......2007-07-08
this has to be my favorite bbvd cd. great to blast in the car for any ride and to dance to.
Great Stuff.......2007-02-03
We used to see these guys play on the Nashville club circuit in the late 1990s, and bought the CD at that time. the energy of their live performances comes through on this New Orleans-style jazz compilation. From the back beat to the great rhythms, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy will have you snapping your fingers, tapping your toes, and wishing you had more of their stuff. I highly recommend it.
Where did these guys come from?!.......2006-03-01
Wow! If you would like a change in pace from hiphop or rock and want to be transported back in time, check out these guys! This group creates a wonderful mix of New Orleans jazz, swing, and modern story lyrics. I only wish we could have some clubs open up in our downtowns with this sound. This group will make you move and you'll be "swinging" before you notice what's happening.
Wonderful.......2006-02-26
With bands like "Big Bad Voo Doo Daddy" they just don't get better than this. If you want to get in a good mood, lose weight, (I did. I lost 25 pounds with this band)or just feel good, this is the music to buy!!!
Couldn't be more satisfied.......2005-08-02
I went to the concert and enjoyed the music sooo much that I decided to buy the CD. My family and I absolutely love it. All of the music is so upbeat it just makes you want to dance.

Big Bad Voodoo Daddy did more than any other band to fuel the sing revival of the '90s, due largely to the group's appearance in the 1996 film Swingers. Since then, the craze has waned, although you couldn't tell it by BBVD. If anything, the combo has approaches their fifth album with more gusto and verve than ever, infusing their old-school jive and greasy horns with a New Orleans sensibility and panache and, in the process, creating their strongest album yet. Although their songs sound like they were lifted right out of the Zoot-suited '40s, the band writes all their own material, taking swing into a raw and modern direction. Big Bad Voodoo Daddy by rights will still be here when the next wave of swing arrives. --Jaan Uhelszki
Customer Reviews:
Great type of Jazz........2006-08-17
Growing up in the 50s is what I listen to, but after seeing a live show of Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, I bought a CD at the show. After listening to the CD, I bought two more CDs at Amazon.com. The music has a real beat to it, and you can't help but move some with the music. It really rocks. Great stuff.
A 5 star treat indeed that is mmm delish.......2006-07-26
This cd is delightful from beginning to end, full of suprises, swing, New Orleans jazzy jump blues ,and smokey infectious vocals that are smouldering hot. Red hot horn riffs that remind one of Bourbon street. Hot tempos and exotic swinging rhythms. Let this cd voodoo your voodoo.
Fun, soulful, carefree...like the spirit of New Orleans.......2006-07-04
I can't compliment this band enough. The contagiuos beat and happy rhythms of Big Bad Voodoo Daddy are contagious... Their music makes you want to dance!
I saw them perform recently at the House of Blues in New Orleans. It was an incredible show. Just prior to singing the title track of this CD, Save My Soul, lead singer Scotty Morris told the crowd that he had written the song 14 years ago. He felt he owed a debt of gratitude to the musical tradition of New Orleans. But now, post-Katrina, the song carries more meaning for him and for all who love N'Awlins.
Save My Soul is a fun, soulful, and carefree CD. Buy it. Enjoy it. Share it with those you love.
Highly recommended!
This is the Best!.......2005-01-20
I own three of BBVD's CDs and this one is the best. You just have to move those feet! I just love these guys.
Hear Oh Yeah in the PC Game Casino Empire!.......2004-10-14
I found this out accidentally! The PC game, Sierra's Casino Empire, which was released in 2000, uses an early version of the song, "Oh Yeah" as background music. I thought it was just a really cool song in a PC game (and, er, the demo, at that!) when I heard it again during the October 11, 2004 episode of the NBC TV show, LAS VEGAS. It made me more curious about the song, so I looked up the lyrics, and found that the song was actually by this truly cool band. Get the CD, buy the PC game!

Go Daddy Go!.......2007-01-24
I first saw Big Bad Voodoo Daddy in the movie, The Swingers, some years ago, and was curious to hear more as Swing dancing is as big as ever these days. Big Daddy pretty much sticks to the grooves, a kind of "dancabilly" that is even more infectious in this live album than on previous studio albums. For swing dancers, this is a modern take on the classic rhythms of the 40s with some pretty jazzy improvisations. Big Daddy can play and they have a lot of fun with the music, showing a tremendous amount of versatility as well as humor on these recordings. The added DVD doubles the pleasure.
voodoo magic.......2007-01-17
Wonderful music! Big Bad Voodoo Daddy is a class act, whose energy and love of music is apparent not only in the sound, but in the enclosed video of one of their concerts. Their sound is catchy and original, while also being reminiscent of a bygone era.
Best of Big Bad Voodoo Daddy.......2006-08-18
I love this album!!!!! Listening to this album makes you feel like you are right there at the show. The musical arrangements are great, that big band swing sound is present and the sense of humor of the bandmates is evident. You don't see any better than this is music today.
Big Bad Voodoo Daddy = BIG FUN.......2006-06-25
The first word that comes to mind when I think of BBVD is FUN.
I first heard this band on the radio. I was hooked immediately...and so were my wife and children. I bought two of their CDs from Amazon.com: Big Bad Voodoo Daddy and Save My Soul. And we've been listening to --and singing along with-- them ever since.
My toddlers tend to sing BBVD songs in public...without inhibition! It's only slightly embarrasing to stroll the grocery store with three kids screaming out the lyrics to Go Daddy-O. But I really can't blame them. The music is contagious!
Just last week, my wife and I caught BBVD live at the House of Blues in New Orleans. It was an incredible performance that kept the crowd smiling. We had so much FUN! BBVD = FUN! There is no other way to say it.
I admit that I was hesitant to purchase this CD / DVD at first, since I already owned most of the songs. But, after seeing them live, I bought this CD the very next day...and we love it.
There is just something about a live performance, even when you're listening to a recorded "live" performance. On stage, BBVD generates some serious energy, and you can't help but be pulled right into it.
The sound quality on both the CD and the bonus DVD is excellent, and the video on the DVD is crystal clear. As a matter of fact, the DVD provides a better view of the band than the one I had "live" at the House of Blues. The music content on both the CD and DVD is the same, though the DVD has extra features like a short film on the band's beginnings. For a two-disc set, the price can't be beat.
If you are into swing, or just need a good dose of happy music, treat yourself to this Live performance of the Kings of Swing. Their fun music can't be beat!
Big Bad Voodoo Daddy ROCKS!!.......2006-02-24
If you like swing or big band music, you will like this CD. The music is upbeat and makes you want to dance. The bonus DVD of their concert is fabulous. If you are looking for one swing/big band music CD/DVD, you can't go wrong with this one.

Big Bad Voodoo Daddy's Scotty Morris is a sincere, talented, knowledgeable music lover who unfortunately can't translate his passion into truly effective sounds. Wide-ranging hipster credentials in hand--BBVD got its name from late blues guitarist Albert Collins--the seven-piece outfit's sound is totally competent and no more. Pushing forward deliberately, but with little sense of the swing that's their supposed trademark, the bland-voiced Morris and band remain lukewarm through This Beautiful Life's dozen cuts. Paying tribute to Sinatra with a closing "Ol' MacDonald" is a nice touch, but not as nice as the real thing is. (Hint: It's on Sinatra's Swingin' Session!!!) --Rickey Wright
Customer Reviews:
Swing music to dance to.......2007-01-03
I especially like the last song of this CD. All the other songs have a typical swing dance beat to it.
More great Jazz.......2006-08-17
This was the second CD that I bought after seeing a live show of Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, and even though it perhaps is not my type of music, I thought it was great to listen to. It really rocks and it has to move you. I really enjoy music that has a beat to it. I think it opened up a new type of music for me. Great stuff.
It doesn't get any better than this.......2005-03-30
This is definitely one of the best swing cds I've ever listened to. The music has a lot of variety, from the very brassy and bright to the softer and more subtle.
This cd leaves their first cd in the dust. A definite must for anyone interested in Swing.
Kings of Swing!.......2005-03-29
If you're a "Swingster" this is one CD you must have in your collection. This is hot, hot, hot! You can't just sit and listen to this one . . . it is so contagious that you'll come down with a major case of the jitterbug and you'll be swingin' all over the room before you can say "Cab Calloway!" The only thing better is seeing these guys in person! Top Drawer for Sure!!!
good cd, more evolved sound.......2004-10-22
the title says it all. the cd is about life, the ups and downs, and everything inbetween. It is a good cd, but doesnt have quite as many super stong songs as Americana Deluxe. You have to be in the mood to listen to this cd, but all the songs are still good, just not something i pop in the cd player just for background music. still recomended tho

Lay in a good round of cosmopolitans, ditch the rug and get ready to turn 2004 into 1944 with these retro swing kings. In an album where horns are king, the Big Bad Voodoo Daddy Christmas disc will please fans and remind the elders that the big band sound has not left the building. While singer Scotty Morris is a bit too mannered at times, he does an adequate job of covering the Yule's coolest, including "Blue Christmas," "Merry Christmas Baby" and "Is Zat You Santa Claus?" and can write a seasonal tune worth returning to every year: Highlights include Morris' own "Rockabilly Christmas," the timeless "Christmas Time in Tinsel Town" and "Last Night (I Went Out with Santa Claus)." But with the Daddy's baritone sax master Karl Hunter blazing and the rhythm section fanning the yule log on "Jingle Bells (Cha Cha)," this might be the disc to jumpstart your holiday party -- even before Thanksgiving dinner gets in the oven. --Martin Keller
Customer Reviews:
Beware - this album is almost too much fun!.......2007-01-11
If you're not prepared to stomp your feet, sway your hips and just generally let loose, this album is not for you. BBVD brings every bit of their modern Big Band, big sound, foot thumpin' style to every one of the tunes on this CD. Great fun to hear them do their thing with Mr. Heatmiser.
Tree Chopin' Good.......2004-12-15
Now if you ask me, this is the style of Christmas music you need to be listnin' to before you go out to chop down your neighbors tree to drag it in and use for your Christmas tree because you are too lazy to go out to the state park to chop one down. It gets you in the mood for mischief. I ain't proportion that ya'll ought to go out and chop down your neighbor's tree, I'm just saying that this music will make you feel like getting' up and doing something frisky and possibly naughty.
I love it. So does Mama. Junior don't like it, but that boy is as dumb as a sack of hammer (don't tell his mama I said that because she'll have my hide)
Exactly what I expected!.......2004-12-15
If you're a BBVD fan, you won't want to miss this one. My husband bought it for me becuase of the "Heatmiser" song but it has shared my CD player with only the Barenaked Ladies "Barenaked for the Holidays" since I got it. I would highly recommend this CD!
Not quite up to snuff.......2004-12-11
I've been a big fan of BBVD for years, but this CD just doesn't quite make it. A few very good tracks, Last Night I went out with Santa Claus and Mr. Heatmiser are excellent. A few OK tracks and the two instumental versions of Jingle Bells that just drag on. I was hoping for more, especially after the Christmas CD the Brian Setzer Orchestra put out a couple of years ago.
Lots of fun.......2004-11-14
Great retro holiday record. Also look for Royal Crown Revue's contribution on Maybe This Christmas Tree, equally as charming.

This band is hip. I have been swing danceing for a long time and the only band that even comes close to these guys is Benny Goodman, and Royal Crown Review. This is a nust buy for all you hepcats out there
Big Bad VooDoo Daddy swings harder than Mark McGwire's bat........1998-08-04
Big Bad VooDoo Daddy creates a style of jazz that conjures up images of smokey lounges in New Orleans or Chicago. They mix catchy lyrics, the talent and ability that jazz requires, and rythms that swing so hard you might get whiplash. Scotty's mellow vocals provide a solid foundation which allows soloists, such as "The Kid" (on trumpet), to weave intricate solos which add a certain punch to the band's already bruising sound. All in all, Big Bad VooDoo Daddy brings back the dancable, firey sound that once made swing the most popular music in the world.
