5.0 out of 5 stars 'Oh' with an h - not the movie soundtrack!, December 11, 2001

I got this album as a gift from a friend who purchased it for me knowing I liked the music in the movie, 'O Brother where are thou.' My friend obviously didn't realize this wasn't the movie soundtrack. But that said, this is a wonderful album, worth listening to on its own merits. Bright, catchy melodies with lyrics that make you think.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of my absolute faves, July 20, 2001

This review is from: Oh Brother Where Art Thou? (Audio CD)

I have had this CD for... I think 6 years now; and it has rarely left my playing rotation. Bright, uptempo and sunny bossa-pop, skiffling from ska to Jazz Butcher and "Eden"-era Everything But The Girl with a sarcastic-adenoidal male lounge singer and the absolutely dreamiest female singer (dreamy, as in overdosed on honey-lemon Vicks coughdrops dreamy). A couple songs catch you off-guard in their melancholy; on reflection, the whole album is infused with a kind of nostalgia and regret. This takes reflection, though, which doesn't happen when listening to the album, you're too busy snapping your fingers and smiling. La di da.

5.0 out of 5 stars A beautiful Pre-nomer, April 4, 2002

I know this guy must be swelling with $ and pride over the naming of this worthy recording. I, too, found this while my friend was looking for the soundtrack for the nice movie. So, I stumbled on it on my hard drive, and I really like it. I like it better than the Grammy Award winning soundtrack. That has qualities too. But I have been listening to Big Lazy, Yo La Tengo,Januaries, and some Dan Hicks and the Hot Licks,some acoustic Bossa Nova, so this fit right in. I LIKE it.
