4.0 out of 5 stars
Different than previous outings, but just as enjoyable!, December 8, 2005
This review is from: Night on Earth (Audio CD)
Unlike the previous works by CP, which I took to immediately, this album took a few listens to grow on me. Is it bad? Hardly. CP is evolving their sound with a bit more vocal work and some faster grooves. The first half of the album will be almost immediately familiar to any CP fans, the second half takes some departures into unknown territory for previous listeners, but in a good way. Standout songs: Lady "T" (the winks to the Jackson 5 and the Bee Gees are great), Music's My Love (classic CP), Sweet Feeling, Sun-Science, Cruising (some of the new sound, great for driving!)

4.0 out of 5 stars
Not sure why, but this keeps finding it's way to my stereo, July 30, 2006
This review is from: Night on Earth (Audio CD)
For the life of me I can't single out one best song, can't tell you which I like best, hell, I can't really even remember any lyrics once it's off.
BUT...I keep finding myself putting it on. And when it's on, I sing, I dance, I move. Or I just put it on in the background. It reminds me of a bunch of other music, but it's not like any of the others it reminds me of.
I ended up buying the other one that people keep raving about ("Wicked is the ...") and that one's just as good (or maybe I remember the Willy Wonka more).
Not that it sounds like any of the following, but if you like Air, Jackson 5, Toto, Steely Dan, Pablo Cruise, late Roxy Music, Sade, The Crusaders, Starbuck, Level 42, Style Council or Scritti Politti you probably will like this.
PS: Everytime I play a track from this CD at a gig someone always asks who it is.

The Magic is Gone..., August 7, 2011
This review is from: Night on Earth (Audio CD)
The album that got me hooked on Crazy Penis was their first - "A Nice Hot Bath With...". At the time, I thought they were in the Big League of downtempo/chillout, along with Solid Doctor, Fila Brazillia, The Irresistible Force, Nightmares On Wax, and the like. And they certainly had the sound to walk with their head high among equals. Sadly, with every consecutive album, they've been regressing, until, with their last two albums, they've devolved into generic commercial trash-dance filler music. No originality, no soul, nothing to remember. Sad...
