Review by Julia Heimann

Al Russ Orchestra's album Johnstons Rag is a delightful collection of classic jazz tunes that will transport listeners back in time to the roaring '20s. The album features a variety of instrumental tracks that showcase the exceptional talents of the musicians in the band.

The album's opening track, "Johnstons Rag," sets the tone for the rest of the album with its upbeat tempo and lively melody. The brass section shines on this track, with trumpets and trombones trading solos and creating a dynamic sound.

Other standout tracks on the album include "Blue Skies," a classic jazz standard that features a beautiful saxophone solo, and "Limehouse Blues," a fast-paced tune that showcases the band's impressive technical skills.
