Album Description

Timeless standards...sophisticated style...seductive charm. A gifted singer who will satisfy your inner passions each time you hear his magic. This is how Jim Altamore is often described. Jim Altamore is a versatile jazz singer of popular standards from what is known today as the Great American Songbook. License to Swing is the name of Jim's debut CD. A collection of American standards set to a swing tempo. Jim pays a heartfelt thanks to some of his predecessors like Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole and Bobby Darin.
