THis is an absolute great CD! It's amazing how these girls manage to have such hip songs on their albums rather than focus in on the stuff at radio. I love the Joey Ramone song and also Ephemera! It's just bliss!

If the movies aren't any good, the soundtracks more than make up for them. The Getting There soundtrack is great! Personally I love the version of What A Wonderful World. Some of the songs that are definitely worth listening to are: Say what you mean, Roadrunner and New Fast (Right Behind You). Anybody with a little bit of rock chick in them will definitely love this soundtrack.

As usual, a supercool mix of tunes everyone can enjoy...this time slightly more on the punk side! You have the awesome cover of "What a Wonderful World" by the late, great Joey Ramone. It also includes songs by Joan Jett and also by the Lunachicks. (All you riot grrls out there might want to check out albums by these artists if you haven't already!) There's a song by the Stone Roses that sounds a bit like the Byrds. Throw in a few more alternative-sounding songs, and you have a great album for your next road trip or party! I bought this for myself almost as much as my daughters. It's also a great primer for those interested in some good gritty rock n' roll roots rather than the current shallow teen fare. Very refreshing!
