It's time to take notice of swing's newest loudmouth, Big Rude Jake, who's debut American album. Big Rude Jake, will be released this week. Jake, originally from Canada, formed a band out of New York City in February of last year, began touring in April, and by midsummer Big Rude Jake signed a contract with Roadrunner Records. Jake's cabaret style swing was a tough match for the Cana­ dian music industry which he sifted his way through for several years. "We were too jazz for the rock critics, too raunchy for the jazz critics, and too odd for anyone else," he said. Expect Big Rude Jake to fit comfortably into the millennium swing movement with tracks like "Buster Boy" and "Dinner With The Devil."

Straight out of the 1996 Miramax Films re­ lease Swingers, Big BadVoodoo Daddy stepped right out of the Derby and right into national tours. John Favreau's film launched national acclaim for the band, and the film's soundtrack spawned fans beyond the underground club scene. The Swingers script "v^ very much the sort of life we were all living. So we figured let's just do this cool movie with our friends," said the band's frontman Scotty Morris. "We had no idea it would do what it did." Early last year Big Bad Voodoo Daddy re­ leased its' self-titled major label debut on EMI- Capitol records. The album contains ^ree Swingers favorites including the single "You & Me & the Bottle Makes 3 Tonight." The disc boasts eleven original tracks and a remake of the Cab Calbway classic "Minnie the Moocher." "Go Daddy-O,""JumpWith My Baby," and"Mr. Pinstripe Suit," are favorites among dancers while the instrumental first track "The Boogie Bumper" showcases the band's talent.
