Review by Matt Leegan

Hot Feet Blues I Love To Sing by Duke Ellington And His Orchestra: A Big Band Blast from 1933 Alright, let’s talk about Hot Feet Blues I Love To Sing. This little gem from Duke Ellington and his merry band of jazz wizards came out in 1933, smack dab in the UK under the His Master’s Voice label. It’s big band jazz at its finest—brassy, bold, and just begging to make your feet move. If you’re into that swingy, toe-tapping vibe, this one’s for you. First up, we’ve got “Hot Feet.” Man, oh man, this track is like a caffeinated tap dancer on a sugar high. The horns blare with all the confidence of someone who knows they’re the coolest cats in the room. There’s this cheeky energy to it, like the band’s daring you not to smile. And honestly? It works. Every time I hear those opening bars, I feel like I’m sneaking into a secret speakeasy where everyone’s dressed to kill and no one cares if you spill your drink. You can practically smell the cigarette smoke and spilled gin. Classic. Then there’s “Blues I Love To Sing,” which flips the mood entirely. It’s smoother, sultrier, and way more introspective. The piano work here—classic Ellington—is so buttery smooth it feels like sliding into a warm bath after a long day. But don’t get too comfy; there’s still plenty of soulful swagger lurking beneath the surface. This tune sticks with me because it’s got that perfect mix of melancholy and mischief. Like, yeah, life might be tough, but hey, at least we’ve got great music to cry-dance to. Now, sure, this album isn’t gonna appeal to everyone. If you’re looking for some modern pop banger or heavy metal shredding, you’re barking up the wrong tree, buddy. But if you dig the sound of a full orchestra throwing down with style, then Duke’s crew delivers in spades. Here’s the kicker: listening to this record makes me wonder how different things must’ve felt back in ’33. No Spotify playlists, no Bluetooth speakers—just folks huddled around a phonograph, marveling at the magic coming out of the horn. Makes me kinda wish I lived back then… until I remember indoor plumbing wasn’t exactly top-notch. So yeah, maybe I’ll stick to streaming this classic instead. In short, Hot Feet Blues I Love To Sing is a delightful slice of jazz history that’ll have you grinning, grooving, and maybe even shedding a tear or two. Just don’t blame me if you start scat-singing in public.
