This album is from a time when really great instrumentals were lots of fun to listen to.  Some instrumentals from that time were not that good or don't stand the test of time.  This still sounds fresh after 40 years when these two albums were first released.  Good music lasts and lasts and this is lively music that's never boring and always fresh and interesting.  It's a shame that we just don't have artists producing such good instrumentals these days.  Forget about Yanni or Kenny G.  The Stompers really swing and produce the kind of music you feel like dancing to (foot stomping music).  Sound quality seems quite good.  Great music to put life into a dull party.
