Review by Amy Muse

Gordon Jenkins' album France 70 is a masterpiece of orchestral jazz music. The album features a collection of classic French songs, such as "La Mer" and "C'est Si Bon," which have been beautifully arranged and performed by Jenkins and his orchestra.

The album opens with the hauntingly beautiful "La Mer," which sets the tone for the rest of the album. The lush orchestration and Jenkins' skillful use of dynamics create a sense of depth and emotion that is truly captivating.

Throughout the album, Jenkins showcases his mastery of orchestration, using a variety of instruments and textures to bring each song to life. His arrangements of "C'est Si Bon" and "Les Feuilles Mortes" are particularly noteworthy, with their playful rhythms and intricate melodies.
