I am so glad that you mentioned those!! I have both "The King James Version" and "Comin' From A Good Place". Got 'em way back when I was in hifi sales, and haven't listened to either of them for probably ten years. Gotta play both of them soon! Harry James was one of the best.
Minimal miking (and very good mics), decent venues (although I think a little too small). Really good electronics chain and overall balance. However, I must say that they're a little too "in your face", as if you're hearing the band from right in front of them, rather than from an audience or ballroom position, but that's an artistic/producer decision. Having played a lot of big band gigs, I don't mind, but it might not be for everyone. On the other hand, the purpose of the recordings was to highlight the quality of D2D and their recording techniques, and they succeeded quite nicely.
