CD Reviews

"Wig in a Box"
Tink Kerbelle | northern Nevada | 07/03/2008
(3 out of 5 stars)

"Wig in a Box



I saw a documentary on cable about this CD benefit project for a school. I really enjoyed the music and put my order in. The tops on this CD is "Wig in a Box" performed by The Polyphonic Spree. It is an upbeat, uplifting, slightly silly, what-the-heck, pop tune that gets into your brain and makes you sing along. At the least you will smile while you listen. Another plus is the raucous rock of "Sugar Daddy" performed by Frank Black. Lots of off beat stuff and some big named musical talents like Cyndi Lauper contribute. No matter what your musical tastes you will probably find something on this CD to rip an MP3 and put on your player."
Best breeders track ever

"As an old Breeders fan, I am completely blown away at their cover of "wicked little town". One of the best songs I've heard in such a long time. Play it over & over - the harmonies are hauntingly beautiful."
Worth it anyway

"no it's not a perfect CD, but as it was a benefit for the Harvey Milk School in NYC for gay/lesbian/transgender and other in-need students, it's worth getting it regardless. I just saw the "Follow my Voice" documentary about the making of this CD and the school. It was very moving and interesting to learn about these kids who can really thrive when they get out of the unsafe environments they have at home or in their old schools because of their orientation. Please support this worthwhile program."
