I've been following these guys for nearly 20 years and they just keeping getting better. Once you hear them you'll love them if you like this kind of music.
Wow! What a tight jazz ensemble. Awesome in every way. I’ll be having this song in my head for days. Trumpet player has monster chops! All of you guys are masters of your craft, and it shows that you’ve invested years “in the wood shed”. Love the vocals too. Showmanship of the string bass, cool... could have sworn that I heard a fuller instrument section and some tuba playing too. Hmmmm, lots of music happening in this arrangement. Can’t complement y’all enough!!
I am a HUGE BBVD fan. I go see them live every time they come to Georgia. This time it was about a 285 mile trip (one way). It was absolutely worth it!! These guys sound even better live than they do on their discs. How often does that happen? I stayed after and they graciously signed all of my CDs and program. They could have been complete jerks because I brought so many things, but they were all super-nice and friendly. I even got my picture with Scotty. Great music and great guys.
I saw them live last month and they were FANTASTIC! I recommend checking their tour dates and see them if you can. They are celebrating 25 years together - with all original members! What other group can say that? ;-)
These folks, in addition to the Brian Setzer Orchestra, are why swing music is the best music of the modern world. Shame the revival didn't last longer than it did. I'd rather listen to this on mainstream radio than what they are playing (in terms of today's music).
Years ago in highchool i remember only a few kids liking Brian Setzer and Big Bad Voodoo as much as i did. Thankfully the rest of my generation held interest.

Visually this takes me back to the days of Abbott & Costello, The 3 Stooges, Laurel & Hardy Also makes me think of Bonnie & Clyde, Al Capone, those old time cars
Saw the show in Montclair last night at the Wellmont Theater!!! Damn!!! You guys killed it. Amazing. Thank you- you just can't beat that big band sound. It ROCKED. I was smiling and bouncing all night! Lara Hope and the Arktones were also FABULOUS!
Tonqualität, instrumentales Können, Arrangement alles in Ordnung. Störend ist die optische Qualität (auf "alt" gemacht) und hektische Schnittfolge. Sowas macht man, wenn man etwas zu verbergen hat (Playback?).
Beautiful music! Thanks guys. My warmest greetings to all true music lovers from Belgrade at the crossing of worlds and two large rivers. Makes me happy to be alive and kicking in these crazy times and less than wonderful world we all live in.
“Diga Diga Doo” - My painting named after an exotica song. A song originally written by Jimmy McHugh & Dorothy Fields in 1928, for the Broadway Musical review “Blackbirds of 1928”. First recorded by Duke Ellington & his Orchestra in 1928. “Diga Diga Doo” became a huge hit. 21 bands recorded a version with lyrics FIFTY Instrumentals were recorded by various famous folk & their… "Orchestras, Big Bands, Jazz Orchestras, Ragtime Bands, Quartets, Ramblers, Low-Jazz Bands, a Generation of Swing, the Charleston City All Stars, Jean “toots” Thielemans, The Varsity Five, the Hot Puppies, The Knights of the Round Table, Riverboat Ramblers, Banjo Magic, The Hot Club of Cowtown, and of course BIG BAD VOO DOO DADDY!" However, in 1960 the great Martin Denny recorded such exotica tunes in Honolulu Hawai'i, in the Kamehameha School Auditorium - for the appealing acoustics.
Seen it twice, and I still haven't heard it. BUT, at the end of the credits it says Diga Diga Doo is a song. That's what made me search this, and is why I now love BBVD.
No joking. I have a male 35 year old Sulpur Crested Cockatoo named Ikarus. I call him Icky but I when I yell for him from another room or when coming home from work, I yell out for my "IGGA DIGGA DO " . I NEVER knew this song existed until right now when I typed it in the search bar then this came up. I know.....who cares.
