4.0 out of 5 stars An Amusing Nod to mid-60s Pop, June 10, 2009

This pleasant little trifle will sound more than a little familiar to those who grew up with top40 radio in the mid/late 60s. Takes bits of The Byrds, a sitar, even a tiny nod to Herman's Hermits ("There's a Kind of Hush", shh), all sung in earnest sincerity.

As on The Mighty Wind soundtrack (which has some of the same musicians), their satirical digests of many songs often sound better than the music of the time.

If you like spoofs on 60s / psychedelic music, be sure to check out the Dukes of the Stratosphere. It's been out quite a while, but it still nails the genre, while adding to it at the same time. The Dukes are actually XTC in disguise.

The joke is OLD guys. Pretending to be pretentious is, well, pretentious. Aren't all of you making enough money from your other endeavors? The joke was AWESOME 20 years ago. It gets a little worse with each retelling, let alone trying to add "fresh" material?!! Just Sad. On the way to pathetic.
