Charlie Barnet - Skyliner (CD)

Strap in and let Charlie Barnet's Skyliner take you straight to the golden age of big band swing.

Named after Barnet's signature 1944 hit, this collection showcases one of the era's most adventurous bandleaders — a musician who drew equally from Ellington's lush orchestrations and Basie's hard-driving swing, forging a sound that was entirely his own. Brassy, bold, and irresistibly danceable.

Charlie Barnet led some of the most racially integrated bands of the swing era, a progressive stance that set him apart from his contemporaries. Active from the 1930s through the 1960s, he recorded prolifically and remained a beloved figure in jazz history until his death in 1991.
