This review is from: Bach for Bachelor Pads (Audio CD)

Ok, I have to admit that I bought this mainly for the Jacques Loussier Trio. The Swingle Singers are ok, but they don't do too much for me. I usually end up skipping most of their pieces on this album; however, I do think that the Jacques Loussier Trio make up for that. It's still a great album. It's a pity they named the CD Bach for Bachelor Pads because it will likely deter some of my fellow bachelorettes, or even married couples from buying it. If you're a Bach fan, you'll likely get a kick out of these "new" versions of his great compositions.
