[78-L] Contemporary 20's music

[Kristjan Saag]

C'mon - this is not a competition. It's a couple of guys having fun 
marrying musical styles and times. Just like they did in the 1920's: 
Gershwin, Antheil, Milhaud, Satie...
And doesn't the arrangement of "The Bogus Man" sound very much like some 
of Ellington's minor key-mysteriosos from the late 1920's?
Funny that no one has noted the soundof the recording: low-fi without 
being muffled. One of the better efforts in the genre, I think.
