Aarrgghh!!

Max Raabe

Becky explained who Max Raabe was few weeks back. Even though I intellectually understood what she was telling me, I didn't truly appreciate it until I listened to it.

I can only describe as this: Imagine that they dug up Tom Lehrer and forced him at gun point to cover today's over produced pop hits, with The Whiffenpoofs as back up singers, and a Big Band as accompanyment.

I can't say you'll like it, but you should give it a try. Go to Becky's site and down the "Mix of the Week." The covers are funny in an ironic way. But I love his sound and it makes me really want to listen to his original stuff.

First of all, thanks for the education on Tom Lehrer and The Whiffenpoofs. Secondly, you should join us at the upcoming Raabe show--Thursday, December 1st. Last I heard, there were still tickets available.
