5.0 out of 5 stars Buy this for "A New Shade of Blue", August 22, 1999

Some of the other 19 tracks are good, but what really makes this album indespensible is Nan Vernon's version of "A New Shade of Blue". Gorgeous, slow, moody, nocturnal, melancholy, emotional...

Seeing names of some of my favorite bands, like Los Straitjackets, Tiki Tones, Davey Allen, etc., I thought this collection couldn't miss. Boy, was I wrong. Apparently other people like this stuff, so I won't get too personal about it, other than to say it didn't work for me. I mean, we need another version of "I Fought the Law" because... why?

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best!, September 23, 2009

I have a ton of music, well over 1,000 CDs, several hundred records, and tens of thousands of MP3 files. I can honestly say that this album is in my top 5 "Best CDs I own."

From beginning to end, from Man or Astroman to the Mello Cads to Los Straightjackets, this is a fantastic album. I can listen to it over and over. If you're looking for a new take on some old music, this is for you. You will not be disappointed!
