(I’m Spending) Hanukkah In Santa Monica is an effort that has all of the spirit of 20th century brass bands and Americana singles. Deborah Silver and The Count Basie Orchestra are immaculate in their output here. While the vocals have their time in the sun, it is the constituent elements of the band that provide bright spots to the composition. (I’m Spending) Hanukkah In Santa Monica is an effort that stands starkly amongst other seasonal and modern takes on the overall 1930s / 1940s vibe of U.S. music. This is a diamond in the rough, and we’re hoping that we can hear more from Deborah Silver in the future.
