First Time on Vinyl LP Since 1998!

Swing revival band Squirrel Nut Zippers released their third studio album, Perennial Favorites, in 1998. This is the album's first vinyl reissue since its original release.

Part of the reason they stand apart from the rest of the neo-swing crowd is that they don't forget that there was a bit of menace in the days of hot jazz — it wasn't a naive, swinging party, there was some genuine hedonism as well. Since the Zippers are revivalists, they can only hint at the subtext that informed swing and hot jazz, but that's considerably more than their glitzy peers do. They also have a knack for a solid hook, and they deliver it all with panache and loose-limbed glee.
-Stephen Thomas Erlewine, AllMusic, 4/5
