I first heard this band many years ago. You love them or hate them. But for sheer relaxing, stress releiving with a sense of humor they can't be beat. So if you love classical instrumental, R&B, Jazz, et al this is the combo for you. And this is a terrific compilation of their life's work. Now if I can only persaude my wife to listen to them to...(she's in the second category above)

A HIGHLY INTERESTING SET OF CDS FROM THE PENGUIN CAFE ORCHESTRA

LOVE THEIR VERSION OF WALK DONT RUN. PITY THE DIDNT DO MORE COVERS

LIKE THIS. WELL WORTH LOOKING INTO.

I had contacted Simon Jeffes wife via their web site several years ago to inquire about any upcoming tour dates. I soon found out that Simon Had passed. I was bummed out, his music had helped me through such a hard time in my life. His music let me know that there was still beautiful and wonderful life out there to experience. I found a new favorite Penguins song on this collection of works. A master of his own genre. I never knew him but I will always miss Simon Jeffes. Wonderfull collection, a must have for any Penguins fan.

The Penguin Cafe Orchestra has produced some of the best music ever. It's style and sound are unique. It is written and performed in a manner that stimulates the parts of the brain that make us feel good when we listen to it. Definitely get this.

I grew up with this music - anyone out there who is bored of anything else ought probably to try this. It'll change your life, man...
