The Real Deal Big Band
by Zan Stewart/The Star-Ledger
Tuesday September 16, 2008:"One of Jersey's ace ensembles should be much better known: The Real Deal Big Band, led by guitarist, composer and arranger Willy Dalton. An outgrowth of the smaller Dalton Gang, the band digs into a melding of jazz, blues and Latin styles with aplomb."
