Movie Reviews of The Time Jumpers Jumpin' Time
Movie Review: Outstanding Western Swing!
Summary: 5 Stars
Where do Nashville musicians, singers and song writers go for entertainment when they have a night off? They go to The Station Inn to see and hear the Time Jumpers play these incredible musical arrangements! In addition to the music, this DVD includes interviews with some of the artists in the audience, as well as interviews with the Time Jumpers themselves.
The Time Jumpers represent modern western swing at its very best. I doubt that you will find any band anywhere that has as many highly skilled musicians in it as this one. These artists command top dollar as "call" musicians in the recording studios of Nashville, and they spend their days cranking out the kind of music that the recording company execs think will sell, but on Monday nights they gather at The Station Inn to play music that is fun to play--and fun to listen to! These musicians are capable of playing any type of music from Beethoven to Bach to Bob Wills, but when they get together to let their hair down and have fun they turn to western swing, with a few cowboy and traditional country songs added for variety.
This is not a touring band, and the musicians don't have that "burned out" look that you see on the faces of road musicians who play the same songs night after night. In fact, they stand up there grinning like Chessie cats for the entire two-hour concert on this DVD, clearly enjoying every minute of it. There is one exception: when Dawn Sears launches into "Sweet Memories" the smiles disappear as the band members begin to get pulled in by Dawn's beautiful, emotional rendition of the song. At the end, they are all struggling to hold back their tears--as you will be when you hear and see her great performance. The other female vocalist, Carolyn Martin, is also outstanding on her songs. If this were a rational world, both of these beautiful ladies would have several million-selling records on the market.
I won't take up more space reviewing each of the cuts on this DVD. They are all outstanding examples of musicianship. I feel so strongly about the quality of this DVD that I have bought three copies to give to friends, and will buy more. You need to try this one. You will then be anxiously awaiting the Time Jumpers' next release.
