4.0 out of 5 stars HAVE TO AGREE, July 6, 2001

If you are going to use another artist as a heavy influence, at least make sure it is a good one and that you do it well. Well Wallinger picks the Stones, The Beatles, Dylan (and they are all good artists) and he manages to make his sound unique and come up with a carload of brilliant tunes (therefore he is very good at what he does). Check out the sheer infectious Sgt Pepper sounding "Call Me Up". I dare you not to like it. Elsewhere this release has winner after winner. All cuts are pretty good, but in particular the beautiful "Vanity Fair", the classic rock sounding "Hercules", the elegant "She's The One" and the grand, bombastic "Curse of The Mummy's Tomb". All of World Partys c.d.'s are great, and this one will not disappoint you.

I've owned Bang by World Party and looked no further because, although it contains some beautiful songs , it's too much of a mixed bag for me. Some great songs, some missed opportunities and so on. However, when I found this one I was tempted to buy it, if only because it contained the original She's the one, (lately a hit by Robbie Williams, I believe).

To get to that song, one has to get through four others and it isjust unbelieveable how good they are. Things don't stop there however. Rolling of a log and Piece of mind spring to mind as other favorites. Great music, well executed with feeling and sincerity. Beatlesy it may be, but there are worse inspirations!

This is an excellent world party cd. if you like the beatles and similiar groups you will love this cd. I don't have the import version, but i cannot say enough good things about this cd, if you are a world party fan, your collection is very incomplete without it!
