Review by Christopher Samuel

Tommy Dorsey And His Orchestra's album, The Many Sides, is a true gem for jazz enthusiasts. The album features a collection of some of the best performances by the legendary bandleader, Tommy Dorsey. The album showcases the many different sides of Dorsey's musical prowess, from his smooth and melodic ballads to his upbeat and energetic swing numbers.

The album kicks off with the classic "Opus One," which sets the tone for the rest of the album. The track is a perfect showcase for the band's tight arrangements and Dorsey's exceptional trombone playing. The album then takes the listener on a journey through some of Dorsey's most beloved tracks, including "Marie," "I'm Getting Sentimental Over You," and "Boogie Woogie."

What sets The Many Sides apart from other jazz albums is the diversity of the tracks. The album features a mix of instrumental tracks, vocal tracks, and even a few tracks that feature Dorsey's brother, Jimmy, on saxophone. This variety keeps the album fresh and interesting from start to finish.

Summary by Christopher Samuel

The Many Sides is a must-have for any jazz fan. The album is a testament to the enduring legacy of Tommy Dorsey and his orchestra, and it is a true pleasure to listen to. From the swinging rhythms to the soulful ballads, this album truly has something for everyone.
