This album Swings like a moose has good guitar work, it has a great song selection, very cohesive and consistent. The band gives nice support. I love that Big Gibson semi acoustic sound, whatever guitar he may use

The album title is purely rhetorical. There is no doubt Kessel swings here, and delightfully so.
