Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Nothing is beyond their rowdy reach! Taken from their debut CD, the Puppinis' Andrews-Sisters-style smackdown of the hoary "I Will Survive" has become the band's signature concert closer. This time around on the band's sophomore offering, it's the Bangles who get the beating, as "Walk like an Egyptian" is zipped up in the Puppinis' zaniness. These campy stampers still show no shame, as nothing is beyond their rowdy reach. Duke Ellington's "It Don't Mean a Thing if It Ain't Got That Swing" is swung straight. But the Classics IV's "Spooky" is re-sparked as a fast tango, and Beyoncé's "Crazy in Love" is bounced between a breakneck, flapper-flagging ragtime and a sultry blues. Three lead vocalists who double on violin, accordion, and piano respectively, the Puppinis have come ...

Besides myself, the audience loved them. Decked out in 40's garb and singing in a 40's "Andrew Sister's" style they belted out classic hits as well as updates (in 40's style again) of favorite 80's music. Who dosen't like a novelty act with talent? I came home after the concert looked them up on Amazon and ordered their two available CD's. I have now shared their music with friends and family, and the verdict is fun! Rating:  - Puppinis Do It AgainOn their second album "The Rise and Fall of Ruby Woo", the Puppini Sisters continue the neo-swing sound they apply not only to great standards, but to contemporary songs as well. This time, they also write and record their own originals as well. Perhaps the best of these originals is "Jilted", which talks about being dumped by a man the woman refers to all a complete slob. The Puppinis should be on their way to greatness with this album. Rating: - come on get with it - these ladies are goodI am a Manhattan Transfer addict from way back and these ladies have some great similarities to their sound. I like their material and their style. Good stuff! There is a little Dan Hicks and His Hot Licks appeal, also. Rating: - Crazy in loveLove these gals with their retro approach to standards and pop hits. They add to the growing list of artists, such as Bette Midler and Michael Buble, who dust off timeless tunes, and give 'em a new polish. |
